Beauty Queen - Big Head Todd and the Monsters

Beauty Queen from Mobile Alabama

Busted for murder at a K-mart store

She shot the conductor of a twenty piece orchestra for cheating on her

Let out the dogs of war

Found her freedom and moved to Pasadena to lay in the hot sun, forget the past

Got off the bus without a penny on her

Looking for love that wasn’t gonna last

She said, «Love is a passionate crime, where only the guilty survive.

And the innocent, they fly away.»

Took in two stray dogs and a Scientologist

Hoping to land a Hollywood score

Enlarged her breasts after several turned down part requests, sold sunglasses

on the Venice sea shore

Saved up some money to buy a bed and breakfast

Gave it away to some hard luck case

Starting over when you should have been a success — Beauty Queen now has some

lines on her face

She said, «Love is a passionate crime, where only the guilty survive.

And the innocent, they fly away.»

She headed off for Anchorage Alaska after falling for a small plane pilot

He was lost at sea on their seventh anniversary

Called in the coast guard but they couldn’t find him

But from their nest came two boys and a girl

The girl plays the field.

The boys are married

Beauty Queen still spins that wheel but she can’t forget about the guilt that

she carries

She said, «Love is a passionate crime, where only the guilty survive.

And the innocent should shy away.»
