I heard you like to skip rope and break hearts
Saw you on the playground with your cards
You just met your equal, Queen of Hearts
Hallelujah
I heard you like to skip rope and play hearts
Singing hallelujah in school yards
You just met your equal, Queen of Hearts
All I do, yeah
I heard you like to skip rope and break hearts
Saw you on the playground with your cards
You just met your equal, Queen of Hearts
Hallelujah
I heard you like to skip rope and play hearts

Hallelujah
I heard you like to skip rope and play hearts
Singing hallelujah in school yards
