She might be too smart, calm and collected
All strung out on string theory
I dig her glasses 'cause they remind me
Just how cute one girl can be

'Cause we're the king and queen of Fortunate Street
From the liquor store down to barbecue Pete's
We own it all as far as we can see
King and the queen

We got a good thing, she rents a sweet place
Clean and bright, smells like flowers
She's kinda quiet, I kinda dig it
Sunday comes, she reads for hours

'Cause we're the king and queen of Fortunate Street
From the liquor store down to barbecue Pete's
We own it all as far as we can see
Yeah we're the king and queen of Fortunate Street
Bound to get lucky, gonna be so sweet
I promise it will always be this way
King and the queen

'Cause we're the king and queen of Fortunate Street
From the liquor store down to barbecue Pete's
We own it all as far as we can see
Yeah we're the king and queen of Fortunate Street
Bound to get lucky, gonna be so sweet
I promise it will always be this way
