The White Stripes - Conquest lyrics

White Stripes - Conquest Lyrics

Conquest-

He was out to make a conquest

Didn't care what harm was done

Just as long as he won

the prize

Conquest-

She was just another conquest

Didn't care whose heart was broke

Love to him was a joke

'til he looked into her eyes

And then in the strange way things happen

The roles were reversed from that day

The hunted became the huntress

The hunter became the prey

Conquest-

Now you know who made the conquest

She, with all her female guile

Led him helpless down the aisle

She had finally made a conquest

ahh ahh ahh ahhhhh (x4)

oooh oooooohh oohhhh

And then in the strange way things happen

The roles were reversed from that day

The hunted became the huntress

The hunter became the prey

Conquest-

Now you know who made the conquest

She, with all her female guile

Led him helpless down the aisle

She had finally made a conquest

ahhhhh

Conquest
