Bridge:
G#m B
Some girls are rational but Sara was not
G#m B
She stared in mirrors thinking one single thought:
E D#
There's seven reasons this crown's not good as got (Julie, Anne, Eunice, Raquel, Marianna, Patricia, Quiara)
C#m F# A#
And so the night of Prom, mercy! Thus went her plot: (Marianna, Patricia, Quiara)
N.C. D#
"P" is for Patricia drinking poisoned punch
N.C. D#
"R" is for Raquel dashed on a rock-- crunch!
E F#
"O" is what Anne said when Sara bludgeoned her brains
G#
And "M" is Marianna's marinated remains
But! But!
D#
"Q" is for Quiara, quiet, drowned in the pool
And "U" is for Eunice's pieces spread round the school
F# G#
But "E's" are for the easy way in five minutes tops
A#
A one-legg'd girl can bring an "N" for end by calling the cops. (What a bitch.)
Chorus:
E F# G#m B
You got your silver Sara, you got your crown
E F# G#m B
You got their blood on your roses in hand
E F# G#m B
Whoa, you donned the sash and scepter, doing a dance
E F# G#m E F# G#m
As you crowned you Queen of High School Land! Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh!
E F# G#m B
Down on your knees before the Queen
E F# G#m B
Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh!
E F# G#m
Down on your knees before
E F# G#m B
They wrapped your wrists in silver, they took your crown
E F# G#m B
As they washed your bloody fingers and hands
E F# G#m B
Into a tight straitjacket, small padded cell
E F# G#m B
Screaming, "I'm the Queen of High School Land!"
E F# G#m B
Woah-oh-oh-oh, oh, oh!
E F# G#m B
Down on your knees before the Queen
