No Picture †grave† Lead Player	#1 by †grave† f at Jun 20, 1979 at 9:03 PM EST
	I read somewhere that the lyrics were " she is the queen of a cancelled pasadena thrill" whatever that meant

No Picture Super Average	#2 by Super Q at Mar 24, 1982 at 11:12 PM EST
	Oh and in response to Kad, which I forgot to post: I'm certain it is a sexual invitation, but one of submission. You know SM had to like S and M :)

No Picture Daniel Average	#3 by Daniel Gordon at Dec 4, 1985 at 3:02 PM EST
	I always thought I heard "She is the queen of a passin' Pasadena thrill" somewhere in there. Of course there are two different vocals at the same time so I could be mixing the two. It sounds like a bittersweet ode to beauty queens, parades, and pageants. Namely the Rose parade, obviously.

No Picture brad Rhythm Player	#4 by brad music at Feb 24, 1999 at 7:08 PM EST
	The way I heard it was the song sprang from a conversation S M had with Jennifer Herrera from Royal Trux about feminine hygiene. Or her lack thereof.

No Picture patrick Wanna Be	#5 by patrick at Jan 4, 2001 at 7:22 AM EST
	Loosen my dress Tie me up just like all the rest I love that lyric. I'd love to know what it means, if anything.

No Picture tim Lead Player	#6 by tim sears at Sep 16, 2001 at 10:00 PM EST
	There are two overlappying voices, one says California, one says Pasadena.

No Picture _Heretic_ Wanna Be	#7 by _Heretic_ at Oct 22, 2002 at 2:20 PM EST
	I believe this song refers to the rose bowl in pasadena california. involved in the rose bowl is parade (with rose covered floats) and a rose queen chosen. i'm told SM is a pretty big fan of sports

	She is the queen of the castle California, thrill I always thought that it was just Pasadena, not california. THe cancelled thing would make sense going along with the rose bowl thing but so would castle.
