    Song Meaning
    The narrator is describing a female character who is now grown up, and dealing with everything the world has to offer. He may have known her in his youth. Therefore, he can only imagine what growing up must have been like for her (based on what he experienced). This girl has made the transition from "drama queen" (youth) to grown-up, and is struggling. She is "old enough to bleed now," and is on the verge of "going psycho." The narrator is able empathize with her, and shows a degree of concern for her well-being.
    Lyrics
    She is my drama queen
    She is so wet and reckless
    She is my drama queen
    She dangles from her necklace

    Daddy’s little bundle of joy
    Out of a magazine
    Everyone’s drama queen
    Is old enough to bleed now

    She is my drama queen
    Her life is now unfolding
    There goes my drama queen
    What do you think she’s holding?

    Hey, little drama queen
    Did you find your savior?
    Hey, little drama queen
    You better call a lawyer

    Daddy’s little bundle of joy
    Out of a magazine
    Everyone’s drama queen
    Is old enough to bleed now

    Hey, little drama queen
    From New York to San Francisco
    Everyone’s drama queen
    I think she’s going psycho

    Daddy’s little bundle of joy
    Out of a magazine
    Everyone’s drama queen
    Is old enough to bleed now

    She’s old enough to bleed now
    She’s old enough to bleed now
