Lady Di And I

Wake me with kisses

in the afternoon

The butler knows any time

you arrive is never too soon

He knows just where you are

by the sound of your car

He'll be waiting there

by the spiral stair

You could drive me crazy

with your unkempt hair

You don't know

what a comb is and frankly,

I don't care

'Cause you're fast

and you're wild

and you make the butler smile

By bringing me flowers

like meteor showers

Which reminds me of something

that I've recently seen

It was a look in the eye

of Lady Di

As she stood on the balcony

knowing the last fantasy

of the century

was in her long white veil

Maybe she would rather

have you than the Prince of Wales

And all the jewels and the crown

and all the villages and towns

that line the sea of the monarchy

And while I cut the roses,

what about Lady Di?

She's a child of the 80's

just like you and like I

Think of all of the things

that she'll never do

See a rock and roll show,

get a heart-shaped tattoo

Wear a t-shirt around

in the middle of town

Take a Harley ride

as the sun goes down

And think of all the music

that I make with you

Let's take a walk

on the wild side,

baby, I'm in love with you

I will leave my Dior

by the cabinet door

And I'll leave my bouquet

on the breakfast tray

My parents are out,

let's head north of the bay

Maybe go for a sail

just like the Prince of Wales

Does he ever love her

in the afternoon?

Was the kiss

that she gave him in public

just a little too soon?

And it's really a shame,

she'll take half of the blame

For the boys in the Maze

and their numbered days

Yes, there's a tear

in the eye of Lady Di

As she looks

from the balcony

knowing the last fantasy

of the century

is probably a lie

My heart goes out to you,

Princess, lovely Lady Di

For all that it seems,

here I stand in my jeans

For whatever it means,

it is I who am queen
