The Sharpest Crown

There was a girl in my hometown
They say she wore the sharpest crown
Beautiful as diamond tile
But they never took her picture because she never learned to smile

It's not surprising
There's nothing exciting

Late at night, you'll hear the sound
They say she wore the sharpest crown

She felt a darkness deep inside
She went and asked her mama why
She got no answer just because
Her mama was asleeping or pretending that she was

It's not surprising
There's nothing exciting

I hope that she'll turn around
They say she wore the sharpest crown

O I loved her, don't ask how
Must've had some reasons that I can't remember now
Some folks say I let her down

But the same folks say she wore the sharpest
Dangerous and tore the darkness
Held her like a ten-ton harness
As I ran off for the farthest town
They say she wore the sharpest crown
