What she said:
"How come someone hasn't noticed that I'm dead
And decided to bury me
God knows, I'm ready"
What she said was sad
But then, all the rejection she's had
To pretend to be happy could only be idiocy
What she said
Was not for the job or lover that she never had
What she read
All heady books she'd sit and prophesise
It took a tattoed boy from Birkenhead to really really open her eyes
What she said:
"I smoke 'cos I'm hoping for an early death
and I need to cling to something!"
