Elizabeth lives in paradise
And she drives a fancy car
She’s arrogant but she’s always nice
If she remembers who you are
And she’s pretty like a dream
And she’ll always cause a scene
It’s a pity she’s such a bore
Her friends are high society
They’re socialites one and all
Never known for their proprieties
They can make you feel so small
And they’ll wear you down to dust
Leave you riddled with mistrust
And they’ll tell you you’re just a bore
When I met her she was crying
She said she’s sick of all this lying
She said inside she thinks she’s dying
And she probably feels like trying
She drinks from crystal chalices
And she tastes the sweetest men
And she’ll leave her crystal palaces
For the salty ones now and then
And she’ll let them stay the night
And she’ll keep them close in sight
Till they tell her she’s just a bore
She’s a bore
