The Awkward Stage
Dandelion
Hey modern school girl what have you done to me?Hey modern school girl you seem to smirk right through meMen erected statues for you Men have toppled towersBut I'd walk all across their backs to hand you some flowersHey modern school girl you're the one they crossed the oceans forHey modern school girl you're the reason men like me lie on the ocean floorHey modern school girl you have seduced meHey modern school girl you've utterly reduced meHey modern school girl I must seem obscenePerfumed in gasoline for a girl who's only seventeenAll of the worlds pretty things are heaped upon herThey name each natural disaster in her honourI brought you every bloody head of every bloody saintSo don't tell me you're tired of red cause modern school girl I know that you aint.Perfumes and hair dyes tested on rabbits eyesCats claws and roses thorns, blood thirsty unicornsThat little girls room, a pink and purple tombHey modern school girl life isn't fairI'm bleeding outside your door and you don't careI don't know your language and I don't know your dancesYou don't know my anguish but you seem to know my chancesHey modern school girl you are one to wear it on your sleeveYou may be innocent but your innocence is cruel and naive
