Last Act of Defiance
You'll go far, little girl.
Now try hard and be the best
The best in all the world.
You can create a demand
For this your special skill.
You will be healing the ill.
It's surgery, but with no knife.
She'll make a great LeechWife.
You get the suckers to suck
To suck out what is bad.
'Cause this is science not luck.
Luck is not what you've had.
But now you've brought yourself up.
Surprise your Mom and Dad
With this, your special skill.
You will be improving your life.
She'll make a great LeechWife
My World
Please tell me what is taking place,
Cause I can't seem to find a trace.
Guess it must have got away somehow.
Probably 'cause I always forget, everytime someone
tells me their name.
It's always gotta' be the same
In my world
Never wore a cover up,
Always beat the boys up.
Grew up in a 5,000 population town
Made my money by cutting grass,
got fired by fried chicken ass
All in a small town, Napanee.
You know, I always stay up,
without sleeping, and think to myself.
Where do I belong forever,
in whose arms, the time and place?
CHORUS
Can't help it if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way.
I may switch off and go in a daydream.
In this head my thoughts are deep,
sometimes I can't even speak.
Would someone be and not pretend,
I'm off again in my world
I never spend less than an hour,
washing my hair in the shower.
It always takes 5 hours to make it straight.
So I braid in a zillion braids,
Though it may take a friggin' day,
There's nothing else better to do anyway.
When you're all alone,
In the lands of forever,
Lay under the milky way.
On and on, it's getting to late out,
I'm not in love this time, this night.
CHORUS
Can't help it if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way.
I may switch off and go in a daydream.
In this head my thoughts are deep,
Sometimes I can't even speak.
Would someone be and not pretend,
I'm off again in my world.
(La, La, La, La)
Take sometime,
Mellow out.
Party up,
But don't fall down.
Don't get caught,
Sneak out of the house.
CHORUS
Can't help it if I space in a daze,
My eyes tune out the other way.
I may switch off and go in a daydream.
In this head my thoughts are deep,
Sometimes I can't even speak.
Would someone be and not pretend,
I'm off again in my world
Can't help it if I space in a daze,
my eyes tune out the other way.
I may switch off and go in a daydream.
In this head my thoughts are deep,
Sometimes I can't even speak.
Would someone be and not pretend,
I'm off again in my world.
