Lyrics[]
MAD | Original |
---|---|
Do you ever feel like you're not really real?
Just a puppet doll dealt a lousy deal Do you ever think that you are just a prop, an animated thing made from paper stock?
When it's you they like, it's you with all your funny ways? I got news for you, no need for feeling blue, 'Cause there's a glow in you...
To spark the light, free color so bright:
You are made from paper, clay, and wool You will easily ignite, ite, ite, Or you'll melt down, which ain't right, right, right
Oh, when will I ever learn, learn, learn? Starting fires is concern, cern, cern, 'Cause then things start to turn, turn, turn.
Listen to the fire marshall Keep your dreams in check, check, check Or you'll leave the place a wreck, wreck, wreck |
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again? Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Screams but no one seems to hear a thing Do you know that there's still a chance for you 'Cause there's a spark in you?
Just own the night like the 4th of July
Come on, show 'em what you're worth Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" As you shoot across the sky-y-y
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon It's always been inside of you, you, you And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough
Come on, let your colours burst Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe |
