Rowena ft. John E Thelin Lyrics

I used to be a drifter

I'd go wherever I pleased

But now I'm stuck with a real shapeshifter

I'm trying hard to appease

She moves like a queen

A prima ballerina

Anybody who's seen her

Will remember her face

Her name is Rowena

There's nobody meaner

I'm in the arena

'Til the end of my days

Every social occasion

Is a study in fatigue

I hear the voices of the competition

Saying, "She's really out of your league"

Well, haven't you seen her –

Mrs. Demeanour?

I'll never be free

Not for the rest of my life

I married Rowena

The human hyena

I'm caught in between

A hard place and my wife

I watch her when she's asleep

I bet she's dreaming

Of someone handsome and clever

How can I trust someone

So shamelessly scheming?

She said that she would be mine forever

The grass isn't greener

On my side, I mean it

I should have foreseen it

Now it's out of my hands

I sent her to Argentina

I'm finally free now

Good luck to Rowena

Whenever she lands
