about

Based on the "Leviathan" series by Scott Westerfeld

lyrics

I get lightheaded like I’m breathing hydrogen
When I realize what a mess I’ve gotten myself in
Aboard this ship, above the war
Something’s happening that I just can’t ignore
For sure

Aleksander Hapsburg, I don’t care
Whether you travel by machine or travel in the air
Because the person deep down below
Is more important than the one you show
I would know

Prechorus
A hundred hints, a thousand clues
A million sideways glances at you and
I guess I just don’t understand boys!

CHORUS
Because…I’m a girl, you idiot!
You just can’t seem to take a hint
Prince Aleksander, you’re so dumb
Prince Aleksander, you’re so dumb


You’re so daft that you can’t see that I’m not a lad
I guess after all the worrying, my disguise wasn’t too bad
Count Volger, Bovril, and Dr. Barlow
But every except you already knows
It guess it shows

You think I’m your best friend, and you’re not all wrong
Can you really not see what’s been right here all along
Your fencing partner, your right hand man
Be by your side, Alek, that’s the plan
Can you understand?

Prechorus
CHORUS X2
