I see them offering you gum I hear the swarming schoolkids' hum A tribe of polyester warriors spellbound They bring you offerings to please Like cigarettes or new lp's You'll have them on their knees and begging Just to play with your comb One glance from those two eyes Will seal your playground empire
My oh my, what a sight for sore eyes, young cleopatra My oh my, what a wonderful prize, young cleopatra You'll never be a queen unless you do as you're told You wouldn't understand it being fourteen years old Don't ever give your love for free But then again, don't even let it be sold
You have your teachers in a trap There's no age limit or no gap To who you set alight with firebombs, ......... I'm glad your father is my friend And now that school is at an end He's only an excuse for me To wait here at your palace gates One glance from those two eyes Will seal your playground empire
Your school uniform looks grey on others and silver on you Your yellow wooden rule a golden sceptre to prove it's true
You're at the youth club near the drums The young guitarist buzzer strums Anything his royal majesty wishes Your borrowed perfume fills the air Pale nostrils start to flare It's more than some can bear But this is your court and they are your dogs One glance from those two eyes Will seal your playground empire
