Crown Jewel

Lyrics for Crown Jewel

Above the diamonds cooking in the core The earth didn't drop a flower Until way after the T-Rex Nature got more lovely as time went on And it all led up to you To you Catch light like a crown jewel Stand tall like Grace Jones Knuckles wrapped like fox gloves Put your spikes on like a rose Just know that you were born Out of a song The earth's been working up to you Since the beginning of time It takes at least one billion years For a diamond to form Way less time than it took the world To forge your soul All your ancestors Like carbon compressed Into a perfect gem Catch light like a crown jewel Stretch up like Dubai Put your ruffle on like a daffodil In the late spring light Just know that you were born Out of a song The earth's been working up to you Since the beginning of time Catch light like a crown jewel Stand tall like Grace Jones Knuckles wrapped like fox gloves Put your spikes on like a rose Just know that you were born Out of a song The earth's been working up to you Since the beginning of time Catch light like a crown jewel Stretch up like Dubai Put your ruffle on like a daffodil In the late spring light Just know that you were born Out of a song The earth's been working up to you Since the beginning of time
