Fox Follows Queen

I'm still pretty sick, so another instrumental it is this week.
I had a dream recently that I was lost in an unfamiliar big city. I finally remembered that I had a maps app on my phone, so I pulled it out and it told me I had to turn right on an upcoming street called Fox Follows Queen Ave. I remember thinking that was an interesting name for a street and when I reached it, it turned out to be a cobblestone street and the street sign included a fairy tale like illustration of a fox trailing after a queen underneath the name.
I often forget details of dreams once I wake up, and I don't remember too much else about that one, but for some reason the street name stuck with me. I don't know what it means, but I've got a lot of song titles to come up with this year, so if my subconscious wants to toss me some ideas, I'm not going to turn them down.
A few nights later I was starting to drift off to sleep and I was thinking about the song title and what kind of song it might be and then I started hearing the main melody in my head. I've learned from experience if I fall asleep while hearing music in my head, I'll forget it by the time I wake up, so I pulled myself back to full wakefulness and hummed into my phone before going back to bed.
