Lyrics
(Verse I)
Introducing April May
The kind of girl you need to stay
She covets all my neighbor's wives
And screams they won't take her alive
She loves my body, loves my band
The girl's addicting helping hands
She bleeds me dry she leaves me sore
But still I'm ever wanting more
(Chorus)
She's the queen of everything
That makes my soul burn
Don't want a wedding ring
Just wants a trick to turn
The queen of everything
That turns my heart black
Don't want a wedding ring
Just wants her chains back
(Verse II)
Her life's all about rock n' roll
You cross that bridge, you pay a toll
A tidy sum you'll have to pay
For crossing Mrs. April May
She's a bud that's not yet grown
The flower I can't leave alone
If into this world we are thrown
Than we'll be lying here alone.
(Repeat Chorus)
