lyrics

MARILYN

She’s got lips just like Marilyn But a tongue sharp as a knife
Not much of a weapon Just seems to get her in more strife

Sometimes the world just gets her down
It never seems to make room for her dreams
Oh yeah this world just gets her down
Cos nobody wants to listen to her schemes

She’s got a head full of music
But a heart full of rage
And she’ll teach you all a lesson
But she won’t turn another page

But she’ll make you believe her
It’s that sparkle in her eye
But when you say you’ll never leave her
She just hangs you out to dry

Oh yeah the world just gets her down
Never seems to make room for her dreams.
Oh yeah this world just gets her down
Cos nobody wants to listen to her schemes

She’s got a candle in her window frame
She burns every night
And she’s singing down the street now
She’ll give the neighbours all a fright

Oh yeah the world just gets her down
Do you think they’ll ever make room for her dreams?
Oh yeah the world just gets her down
Do you think they’ll ever listen to her schemes?

With her lips just like Marilyn
But a tongue sharp as a knife
Not much of a weapon
Just seems to get her in more strife

And we’ll get no sleep tonight
