lyrics

m so afraid you're gonna make me cry
Everyone knows I wanna be a rockstar
But I'm so afraid I'm gonna make you laugh
By putting down on paper my deepest desires

Like tearing the wings off those stick-thin pixies
Who flit around Crescent Street like honey for bees
Put on some clothes dear, before you freeze
You're too sweet for me

I'm so afraid you're gonna make me cry
Everyone knows I wanna be a rockstar
But I'm so afraid I'm gonna make you laugh
By putting down on paper my deepest desires

Like taking the social out of social butterflies
And seeing how well they like life as a moth
Lurking in shadows while praying for light
'Cause they have no life
