|
You can stab my back, you can steal my flag |
|
But it's alright |
|
Little sticks and stones, break my brittle bones |
|
But I'm alright |
|
Every single day is a little step closer to my new heaven |
|
If that's the way you want it |
|
That's the way you'll get it |
|
If that's what you're thinking |
|
Don't think you won't regret it |
|
If that's the way you see it |
|
Just reach out and touch it |
|
But you better beware it don't burn your hands |
|
So step back and step back |
|
Don't cry, don't cry |
|
I am strong enough, I'm made of serious stuff |
|
Yes I'm alright |
|
You can sling your mud, yeah even draw a little blood |
|
But I'm still alive |
|
Every single word, you're serving up as hot air for my big balloon |
|
If that's the way you want it |
|
That's the way you'll get it |
|
If that's what you're thinking |
|
Don't think you won't regret it |
|
If that's the way you see it |
|
Just reach out and touch it |
|
But you better beware it don't burn your hands |
|
So step back and step back |
|
Don't cry, don't cry |
|
So you bought your new dream |
|
But you're payin' with your dignity so dearly |
|
Don't cry, don't cry |
