Two Princes Lyrics
One, two, princes kneel before you
That's what I said, now
Princes, Princes who adore you
Just go ahead, now
One has diamonds in his pockets
That's some bread, now
This one, said he wants to buy you rockets
Ain't in his head, now
That's what I said, now
Got some big seal upon his jacket
Ain't in his head, now
You marry him, your father will condone you
How 'bout that, now
You marry me, your father will disown you
He'll eat his hat, now
I'm the one that loves you baby can't you see?
I ain't got no future or a family tree,
But I know what a prince and lover ought to be,
I know what a prince and lover ought to be
Just go ahead, now
And if you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead, now
And if you wanna buy me flowers
Just go ahead, now
And if you like to talk for hours
Just go ahead, now
That's what I said, now
Princes, Princes who adore you
Just go ahead, now
One has diamonds in his pockets
That's some bread, now
This one, he wants to buy you rockets
Ain't in his head, now
I'm the one that loves you baby can't you see?
I ain't got no future or a family tree,
But I know what a prince and lover ought to be
I know what a prince and lover ought to be
Just go ahead, now
And if you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead, now
And If you wanna buy me flowers
Just go ahead, now
And if you like to talk for hours
Just go ahead, now
Just go ahead, now
And if you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead, now
And If you like buy me flowers
Just go ahead, now
And if you like to talk for hours
Just go ahead, now
Just go ahead, now
If you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead, now
If you wanna buy me flowers
Just, go ahead, now
And if you like to talk for hours
Just go ahead, now
Just go ahead now
Whoa, just, just go ahead now
Just go ahead now
Whoa you're magisty
Come forget the king and marry me
Just go ahead now
C'mon
C'mon
Just go ahead now
Yeahh
If you want to buy me flowers
Just go ahead now
if they were just a one or two-hit wonder, then how come they have a greatest hits album out? little miss can't be wrong is a good one too - you should listen to them and then try to say they don't have talent.
one-hit wonder doesn't mean no talent. and greatest hits album doesn't mean not a one-hit wonder. practically every band that ever signed with a major label puts out at least one greatest hits album.

This is such a funny song, and I really like it!! It aleays makes me in a good mood =)
well to be honest, the whole album is excellent and if any one of you doesn't have it you should check it out.
I first heard this song on VH1's 50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs Ever. lol. I think they were way off on this one, cuz i like it a lot. Everyone who likes this song, send an angry email to VH1 or something.

@MeanLookstheIII I agree! This is a wildly romantic song. And the music is so bouncy, yet the lyrics are tinged with sadness. I love it.

I don't really think thing song has any really deep meaning, compared to songs that are ambiguous and open to interpretation. I agree that it's probably about a guy (the singer) eager to convince a girl that although that the "other guy's" superficies may be more appealing, he's the one she could be comfortable with. I don't think the meaning is what makes this song.. it's because its so catchy and bubbly and happpy :)
In the album cover they say its about Blues Travelers John Popper

Rockets especially seems a bit of a stange thing for someone to buy romance with it. Doesn't really seem to fit in with the bands image as a whole but one thing that always struck me is that could be after a double meaning for cold war politics with the "two princes" being the US and USSR...

@alanaraee3 are you daft?

Actually, the lead singer lost his voice for years. About 6 months ago I heard him on the radio, and his voice is back, but he's being really cautious with it...can't blame him, imo.
Yea fleaaaaa....These guys are proof that just because the radio liked only a few songs, it doesn't mean those were the only good ones. These guys are a good, solid band, and it still annoys me that they were on VH1's stupid list for most annoying songs or whatever. peace
When I hear this song, it makes me want to stick needles in my eyes.
wilson1983 and MeanLookstheIII u both are right but who the fuck is vh1 ne ways? they said jimmi hendrix was a one hit wonder they are idiots!
