Lyrics

Emily, Emily Emily, can't you write a happy song? Get your ass to number one You could try a little harder Emily, you could be a millionaire But you're so full of hot air Gonna end up like your father Emily, you can't leave your life to chance Get a boy and learn to dance Be a girl like any other Emily, are you stuck up? Are you gay? If you are, well, that's okay 'Cause it doesn't even matter, Emily Emily, it's your life and you can't live it twice One day you'll understand, Emily, take my hand Emily, I love you and I know you do too You never make no sense screaming at me in French Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Shut up, listen to me, dance with me, Emily Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Shut up, listen to me, dance with me, Emily Emily, you got so much in your life Me, I got no one's advice Don't you know you got it easy? Emily, what you smoking, what's that stench? Who you screaming at in French? Did you really think you had me? Emily, that's enough, do as you're told Acting like you're eight years old I give up, it's not worth trying Emily, one day I will end up dead That's the only thing I've said That would ever get her smiling, Emily Emily, it's your life and you can't live it twice One day you'll understand, Emily, take my hand Emily, I love you and I know you do too You never make no sense screaming at me in French Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Shut up, listen to me, dance with me, Emily Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Shut up, listen to me, dance with me, Emily Emily, live your life in a balloon Lock yourself up in your room So the world can never reach ya Emily, am I speaking Japanese? Got me falling on my knees Got me praying to Saint Peter Emily, see the price I have to pay I would give my life away If I knew that I could reach ya Emily, why do you make this hard to me? It's not the way it's meant to be I don't ever wanna hate ya Emily dance, Emily dance, dance, dance Emily dance, Emily dance, dance, dance Emily dance, Emily dance, dance, dance Emily dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, dance, Emily dance Emily, it's your life and you can't live it twice (Emily, Emily) One day you'll understand, Emily, take my hand (Emily) Emily, I love you and I know you do too (Emily) You never make no sense screaming at me in French (Emily) Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? (Emily) Shut up, listen to me, dance with me, Emily (Emily) Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? Pourquoi tu gâches ta vie? (Emily) Shut up, listen to me, dance with me, Emily Emily, dance!
