| She was a happy child
|
| Funny and bright and wild
|
| And all of the grown-ups agreed
|
| She was «Most Likely To Succeed
|
| In Ruling the World»
|
| Now she calls you on the phone
|
| She’s never there alone
|
| Who is he, why is he there, that man?
|
| She steals everything she can
|
| Easily buy it. |
| «Mother
|
| Can you send some cash?»
|
| Here, world domination rules
|
| Get in line with these fools
|
| We’ll show you how much it costs
|
| Twice as much as we’ve lost
|
| This is no way to live
|
| And I have no more to give
|
| She’s got her feet on the ground
|
| Life is a merry-go-round
|
| Taking her up so high
|
| The angels cry
|
| She’s got her feet on the ground
|
| Life is a merry-go-round (Life is a merry-go-round)
|
| Taking her up so high
|
| The angels cry
|
| The story goes on and on
|
| Nobody’s right or wrong
|
| There somebody’s aunt
|
| Somebody’s dad
|
| They spent the last dollar they had
|
| Trying to bring someone home
|
| You, well you call her on the phone
|
| You’re always here alone
|
| A daily reminder of what it’s cost
|
| How much you’ve given
|
| How much you’ve lost
|
| Trying to save her
|
| I’ll just send you the cash
|
| Now world domination is lost
|
| And this is what it cost
|
| Twice as much as we had
|
| But Daddy, it’s not that bad
|
| But how does she survive
|
| Why is she left alive?
|
| She’s got her feet on the ground
|
| Life is a merry-go-round
|
| Taking her up so high
|
| The angels cry
|
| She’s got her feet on the ground (Feet on the ground)
|
| Life is a merry-go-round (Life is a merry-go-round)
|
| Taking her up so high
|
| The angels cry (Don't you hear the angels cry?)
|
| She’s got her feet on the ground
|
| (Gonna get her feet back on the ground)
|
| Life is a merry-go-round (Life is a merry go round)
|
| Taking her up so high
|
| The angels cry
|
| She’s got her feet on the ground
|
| Life is a merry-go-round
|
| Taking her up so high
|
| The angels cry
|
| She’s got her feet on the ground (Have her feet on the ground)
|
