you always thought
you’d get your chance
you would be a movie queen
some young heir
would ask you to dance
and there’d be more sparks
than you’d ever seen

oh my darling
what a joke

now all these men
they rule the world
they stand so still
so strange
they don’t look right

but back at home
there’s a little curl
and when it gets too late
it eats them up

oh my darling
here we are

when you dream sweet
and you have a dream
do you carry it away with you
do you let things remain as they seem
me i never knew just what to do

oh my darling
let it be

now what do you think is coming next
i think we’re gonna have to leave this place
i think it’s time we gave our heads a restĀ 
and let the little heart win the raceĀ
