Lyrics[]
The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising
When I walk in like this
With and attitude
You should know that
I’m coming after you
You can run, you can hide
But you’re mesmerized
In your mind I am
Already idolized
Playing dirty -
Not my case!
Giving up hopes -
Not my case!
Being envious -
Not my case!
If you got something to say
Say it to my face!
The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising
(Get ready for a)
Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra pa
Pa ra ra pa pa-rade
I will glow, I will burn
Illuminate
Bring the passion inside
Let me touch your fate
I will lead, I will guide you
On your way
I am here to remind
You’re in the right place
My rules, your rules
I’m a woman, I’m a ruler
My rules, your rules
I’m accepting only true love
My rules, your rules
I’m a woman, I’m a ruler
You got something to say
Say it to my face
My rules, your rules
Getting ready for the parade
My rules, your rules
No excuses, if it’s too late
My rules, your rules
Everybody follow my way
You got something to say
Say it to my face!
The queen of the night is coming
The blood moon is rising
(Get ready for a)
Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra
Pa ra ra pa
Pa ra ra pa pa-rade
