The Divine Comedy The Frog Princess song lyrics

I met a girl, she was a frog princess

I guess I ought to make it clear

That I saw nothing through her see-through dress

Until she whispered in my ear

"You don't really love me and I don't really mind

'Cause I don't love anybody,

That stuff is just a waste of time

Your place or mine?"

I met a girl, she was a complete mess

I should've left her well alone—but oh no, not me!

I had to see if underneath that dress

Her heart was really made of stone

I met a girl, she was a frog princess

And yes I do regret it now

But how was I to know that just one kiss

Could turn my frog into a cow?

And now I'm rid of her I must confess

To thinking 'bout what might have been

And I can visualise my frog princess

Beneath a shining guillotine

You don't really love me and I don't really mind

'Cause I don't love anybody,

I come and go through people's love lives

Your place or mine?
