From the November 09 album Brother Bird

Lyrics

All hail Queen Josephine
She's the toughest girl you have ever seen
Life's a carnival and she is the prize
Secret language hidden in her eyes
Queen Josephine

Dancing tiptoe across the floor
She don't stop for nothing when she's running out the door
Star of pillowfighting puddle-stomping scenes
I can't say enough about my one and only
Queen Josephine

She talks to angels cause I can't hear what they say
Sun shines in her window even on a cloudy day
She likes to dance on a brick wall in the park
She likes to fall asleep singing in the dark

You want to protect her as she's climbing up the walls
You want to be there for her every time she falls
You want to throw your arms around her and save her from this world
She says, "That's OK, I'm not a little girl."

She's my hero Queen Josephine
Wants to be a pirate every Halloween
Can't count high enough for the blessings she's given me
All she wants is a day at the beach and a lemon tree
Queen Josephine

We could all learn a lesson from Queen Josephine
She'd never hurt your feelings but she says just what she means
Tries hard to share her toys and she'll give what's in her heart
I've known her for a thousand years and we've never been apart
Queen Josephine
