lyrics

The TV asked me "when you grow up,
What will you be: a killer or a punchline?"
And what will happen if my brain can't stop
All that dreaming must have warped my tiny mind
Oil on the water inside my grimy fishbowl
It's no surprise things took such a long time...

I never could commit to heroine
I never found something I could be a hero in
I've flown the nest but not grown up
A cuckoo chick, instead of what I could've been
I don't mind that you think I've lost it
Maybe I'm glad; I must be nothing like you

A dumbed down fairytale
We all can get a grip on
Like it got a grip on me
Practising my bite
So I can get my teeth into
Whatever's got its teeth into me

I blow a kiss as the grim reaper grins at me
Won't hang my head for shame nor gravity
Afraid of my shadow but it can't scare me straight
Drowned out the sound of the pop psychology
This princess has a thousand enemies
The revolution backlash chews my mind
