So thank you for the lawn and the tea cups
the tutus and the crown that I´ve still got

now I shine like a new silver spoon
and keep quiet as I´m supposed to do


So thank you for the ring and the tulips
though I guess I was too young to refuse it
but it´s sunday I don´t need an excuse

I´m a shade in pretty expensive shoes

Yes, that twisted melody

spinning in my head like a ferris wheel
no, I wouldn´t be so sad
if I could be alone for a while


So thank you for the price on my raincoat
and that hook that looks so nice

round my pale throat
I´m a big girl paying all my dues
pretty girl in pretty expensive shoes
