River Song: The Fresh Princess Of Taunton

Now, this is a story all about how
My life got flipped-turned upside down
And I’d like to take a minute
Just sit right down
I’ll tell you how I became the princess of a town called Taunton

In Southern United States born and bred
On the back deck was where I spent of of my days sunnin’
Chllin’ out maxin’ relaxin’ all cool
Thinking living up North must be for a fool
When another Griff came up sporting wood
Snuck up behind me, lifted up the trunk and got under the hood
I had one little pregnancy and my Mom was done
She said “You’re movin’ with a brand new family in a town called Taunton”

I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed up my harnesses and sent me on my way
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me a ticket
Luckily she sent me with a friend, so in storage I didn’t have to kick it.

Coach class, yo not for me,
Drinking water from a sippy cup not being able to pee pee
Is this what the people in the North be living like?
Gonna have to head down south even if I need to sit in a basket on a bike

I hear they’re hard edged, bitter and mean
It’s gonna be like trying to find a clean lap at Charlie Sheen’s
I don’t think it’’s happening
I’m not good with the unknown
Don’t think I am prepared for a towncity called Taunton

Well the plane landed and I came out
I was given to a woman I didn’t know who started calling my wrong name out
I wasn’t trying to get adopted
I just got here
But she sprang with quickness like lightening and me disappeared

She brought me in a car and she held me near
There was a dog decal on the car and a Yorkie sticker on the mirror
I could tell by the way she held me this was my new Mom
So I forgot all the bad thoughts and said “Yo, Mom homes to Taunton”

We got to our house about 7 or 8
A little Yorkie ran up and I said “Yo homes smell you later”
I looked at my kingdom
I was finally home
To sit on my throne as the Princess of Taunton
