| The day it was explained to me
|
| I understood it finally
|
| Oh oooh oh
|
| I got the letter in the mail
|
| I saw the stamp, I knew I’d failed
|
| Oh oooh oh
|
| In a way it was better than today, it was a special day
|
| It was the last time that I smiled
|
| In a day, we were made in a day
|
| I used to think this world was for me to save
|
| Oh ooh ooh oh
|
| Then I grew and I grew and everything I knew was a simple thing
|
| It was the same old silly game
|
| Oh ooh ooh ooh oh
|
| I thought it was the lemonade but nothing really came to my aid
|
| Nothing really came
|
| It’s all a silly game
|
| Oh you silly world
|
| Are you famous to the stars?
|
| Born a little girl
|
| You woke up as a single mother
|
| Just a name, just a name, everybody has a name
|
| It’s a useful thing but to me they’re the same
|
| Oh ooh ooh oh
|
| I’m alone, I’m alone and I’m waiting at the phone
|
| As the seconds pass I grow heavy like a stone
|
| Oh ooh ooh oh
|
| I wish it was the time of year
|
| But everything was crystal and clear
|
| Everything was clear
|
| Nothing more to fear
|
| Oh you silly world
|
| Are you famous to the stars?
|
| Born a little girl
|
| I remembered everything you said
|
| You woke up on the other side of the bed
|
| Oh you world
|
| Sleep all you can
|
| You’ll wake up as a single mother |
