Queen for a Day Lyrics

It? s never gonna work out
Quite the way that they plan, their little greasy games
They? ll drop you just as soon as they can pick you up
It might be fun for a while, what happens tomorrow?

I don? t wanna be no queen for a day
Oh, I got what you want and I may just walk away
I don? t wanna be no queen for a day
I just gotta get away

I wonder why they think about
What they can get from me
I guess I? ll let 'em believe
Whatever it is they want to see
I know it? s sick, I hope it? s only paranoia

I don? t wanna be no queen for a day
Oh, I got what you want and I may just walk away
I don? t wanna be no queen for a day
I just gotta get away

Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away

Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away

Admit it? s not all bad
It? s almost like a real cheap high
Till you get knocked on your ass, thinking you can fly
Suppose it? s something that you learn before you die

I don? t wanna be no queen for a day
Oh, I got what you want and I may just walk away
I don? t wanna be no queen for a day
I just gotta get away

Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away

Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away

Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away

Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away
Gotta get away, gotta get away

Dance Hall Crashers came into existence after Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman disbanded from the legendary ska-punk band Operation Ivy. Both departed soon after the Crashers' formation (and later reunited in Rancid), leaving vocalist Elyse Rogers and guitarist Jason Hammon to lead the band.
The Dance Hall Crashers recorded a few songs during their first year (these are featured on The Old Record), and in 1990, they made their most notable lineup change, adding second vocalist Karina Denike. Soon after, the band members parted ways, but they played a reunion show in 1992 due to pressure from fans. The show met with great fanfare, and so the band decided to reunite on a more permanent basis, with Rogers and Denike on vocals, Hammon on lead guitar, his brother Gavin on drums, Scott Goodell on second guitar, and Mikey Weiss on bass. The Dance Hall Crashers song "Enough" was featured on the soundtrack for Angus (1995 film). The song "Don't Wanna Behave" was featured in the 1996 film "Biodome" as well.
As of August 2005, the band members lead separate lives but still play a few shows per year. In November 2004 they played and recorded a show at the Hollywood House of Blues; the concert was released by Kung Fu Records in September 2005 as part of the popular The Show Must Go Off DVD series.
