lyrics

Lure of new skin
It's the lure of new skin
Woe betide her if she comes this way again
Press the needle to begin
It's the lure of new skin

She's a cool killer queen with ebony locks
As swift as Diana, as cunning as a fox
And she took up her sword lay down her frocks
Cut through the forest to find what was lost

It's the lure of new skin
Woe betide her if she comes this way again
Press the needle to begin
It's the lure of new skin

At the top of the turret
A beauteous maiden lies
She kissed her long and deep
Opened her eyes
But hidden there behind
Was a hideous disguise
So she took to her heels
Rode to the skies

She's riding to the hills
She doesn't have to wear that crown
She'll make her own happy ending
She don't care if she lets the prince down when she rides into town

It's the lure of new skin
Woe betide her if she comes this way again
Press the needle to begin
It's the lure of new skin

I am not a princess
I am not a queen
I am a bold adventurer
I still dream
Of what's lurking beyond the castle walls
I can ride the dragon 'til the darkness falls
