[Verse]
A queen should rule the Nile
With a fearless sense of style
She ought to be immune to such inconsequential frights
A queen should not routinely
Feel anxious and unqueenly
Any time somebody goes and turns out all the lights

[Chorus]
A queen should be audacious
If slightly ostentatious
She shouldn't be so royally afraid

[Verse]
A queen should run her nation
Without fear or trepidation
That's the way a leader makes her legendary mark
Intrepid and empowered
She shouldn't be a coward
A scaredy-sphinx afraid of something silly like the dark

[Chorus]
Adventurous and daring
As bold as what she's wearing
Why am I so royally afraid?
[Outro]
A queen should not be royally afraid
