lyrics

Hollering down from her ivory tower
white as wishes on a dead dandelion.
I have seen higher and mightier trampled flowers
laying down on the shoulders of giants.

You want a miracle?
You want a pedestal?
You want a professional opinion?
Listen, here’s what you’re missing:

Think of anyone once in a while.
Anyone else
once in a while.
Think of anyone once in a while.
Anyone else
once in a while.
Think of anyone once in a while.
Anyone else
once in a while.
Think of anyone once in a while.
Anyone else
once in a while.

Go back to bed, angel.
Sometimes even grownups need to cry.
It’s just the stress talking.
There are some tears that never dry

Must be nice to have dress made of dollar bills
with a string you can pull to bail yourself out.
But I never did really know Jack from Jill
about filling the hole in your broken crown.

You want a miracle?
You want a pedestal?
You want a professional opinion?
Listen, here’s what you’re missing:

Think of anyone once in a while.
Anyone else
once in a while.
Think of anyone once in a while.
Anyone else
once in a while.
Think of anyone once in a while.
Anyone else
once in a while.
Think of anyone once in a while.
Anyone else
once in a while.
