[Verse 1]
Powerlines, Pohutukawa trees
Make an in-between for everything I own

Got my license on the third time
Traveling down the gravel that really is a main road
People stare, sun in my hair

Window down, feel like something off a movie
Girl dreaming of her big break and all the money she'll make
(Saving money up for next year)


[Chorus]
They're watching me

On the big stage, red, green and mellow
Young and free
Turn the lights on me, take three

Oh, but all they see is a girl in stilettos
When all I want is to get up there and sing


[Verse 2]
Thank God I don't smoke anymore
Leaves me one less thing to hide

And I don't really miss the 1950s fishermen
Trying to chat me up outside
I see people's stares, feel my own tears

Looking down it's like they all just wanna do me
Mr Understanding pulls up a chair, puts a hand on my shoulder
(Let me buy your next beer)


[Chorus]
They're watching me

On the big stage, red, green and mellow
Young and free
Turn the lights on me, take three

Oh, but all they see is a girl in stilettos
When all I want is to get up there and sing


[Verse 3]
Three Februaries feels like a century
And things are spinning way out of control

Oh, you tell me wait a while but I'm not gonna smile
I've decided you're an $$#hole
People stare, sun in my hair

Window down and I'm watching lots of movies
Still dreaming of the big break and all the money can wait
(I'm saving up for next year)


[Chorus]
They're watching me

On the big stage, red, green and mellow
Young and free
Turn the lights on me, take three

Oh, but all they see is a girl in stilettos
When all I want is to get up there and sing
