[LYRICS]

(And now, a decree from her Royal HIGHness)

VERSE 1:
MOM: Oh, my beloved daughter
Listen, you know you oughta
Heed the words of your mama
We don't need unnecessary drama

GIRLFRIEND: Oh, my beloved mama
Listen, I know you wanna
Say what's best for your daughter
But I love what my man’s gotta offer

MOM: What has he got that you don’t have
Babygirl, you’ve got it all
But he, got no job, got no class
No, this gold digger got me so appalled

GIRLFRIEND: He's like a beam of sunshine
Yeah, his love is unconditional
All I want's to make him mine
So please Mama, just be rational

CHORUS 1:
MOM: Honey, can'tcha see
Foolishly, you've put your life o' royalty
In jeopardy
To lead a simple lifе among the peasantry, ohh
GIRLFRIEND: Mama, can't you see
Royalty's begun to takе its Toll on me
(Please, tell me what you need)
I need to spread my wings
-To lead a little life of pleasantries

VERSE 2:
MOM: Oh, my beloved daughter
Come on, be a little smarter
Think about it a little harder
And follow with me and your father

GIRLFRIEND: Oh, my beloved mama
You know I love you but I
Can't take much more of this any longer
Cuz this life it feels like torture

MOM: Family forged from hellfire
Rule it all with an iron fist, baby
So the mortal you fell for
Will fall victim to your lineage

GIRLFRIEND: Don’t care for your desire
Love will light the path I weave for me
And the man that I fell for
Will take me away from misery

CHORUS 2:
MOM: Honey, can'tcha see
Foolishly, you've thrown away your legacy
To live out fantasies
To let a peasant take your dignity, ohh

GIRLFRIEND: Mama, can’t you see
Hear me please
The love, it makes me whole
(Oh, the words you need to heed)
I need to keep him close to me
So who are you to tell me what I need?

BRIDGE:
MOM: Somebody who's big and strong
(Mama...)
MOM: Somebody to sing our song
(Mama...)
MOM: Somebody who can provide
(Mama...)
MOM: Somebody who'll hold my baby through the night

GIRLFRIEND: Somebody who's big and strong
(Uh huh)
GIRLFRIEND: Somebody to sing my song
(That's right)
GIRLFRIEND: Somebody who can provide
(Yea, baby)
GIRLFRIEND: Somebody to-
Wait...
GIRLFRIEND: No, mama, you know this wrong
MOM: Oh no, my baby, just play along
GIRLFRIEND: Nuh uh, that boy da light of my life
MOM: That boy will never know how treat my baby right

MOM: Cuz that boy, he just don't belong
GIRLFRIEND: Mama, that boy ain't like anyone
MOM: Oh nah, start pushin' that boy aside
GIRLFRIEND: No no, soon you will find, I will never be denied
(I will never be denied)

CHORUS 3:
MOM: Can'tcha see
Foolishly, You push away your family
So selfishly
To leave
To disappear into obscurity, oh no

GIRLFRIEND: Mama, can'tcha see
All I need's for him to take a hold of me
(Oh, do you have to leave)
So set me free
We'll leave and lead a little life in harmony

OUTRO [SUNG BY BOTH]:
Oh, dear Mother/Daughter
A bond that flows in demon's blood
Or vows beneath the stars above
I ask, dear Mother/Daughter
The covenant I bleed with, shunned
So is the womb the HIGHest love?
Oh, no
