Gretel

Ward off great evil 'Fore I reach the front door What am I in hell for? Was I born to be tortured? Creatures, medieval Can you guide me? (Yes, of course) Fairy, goblin, unicorn Point me the way with your horn So you don't believe me Well, I'll make it easy I'll burst open the seams with you standing next to me What look like raisins Are plastered on my skin Naturally occurring monster making condition It's not the effect of poison ivy I go hiking carefully How come they want me on TV? Am I really that much of a freak? Why ever would I come out of hiding When nobody's nice to me? How could anyone think I'm lovely When they retch at the sight of me? I'd like to get groovy, to drink a mango smoothie I'd like to watch a movie without everyone, and the sun Telling me that I look dumb Hate my buds, just because there's not enough room for us They forced me to eat ice Then I broke my teeth and cried Jekyll, Hyde, Dragon, Slime The only ones who are kind Not my fault my body's spots resemble dried apricots Beedo, Appadeebin Wish I did, but I don't believe him All I want is a quiet evening And now you're telling me my dream's not one that's worth believing in? Eedo, Appigo Appadeeben Yeah, I'm ugly, but there is a reason I came out of the oven too seasoned Sometimes there's a casserole that just isn't worth eating I imagine self-worth and inner peace Tastes like artificial cherry No, wait, maybe more like ice cream Either way, I really could use some flavouring Come one, everybody, come one, come all The circus clown has dropped the ball "How about we give her a face full of pie?" For some reason, in return, you'd still expect a smile And, whenever you get mad I'm your walking punching bag Can your conscience handle that? It shouldn't be you, the one who's feeling bad Not with all your intact arteries I'd like to get groovy, to drink a mango smoothie I'd like to watch a movie without Everyone, and the sun telling me I'm not enough Why would I enjoy this? No, I'm not a masochist With red gloves, all you touch Certainly will get marked up I, in fact, in light of this Became your painting canvas It's me against you and dad Not afraid to punch him back Happen to want to get hurt badly? Then go ahead and try messing with me I assure you I'll split you to atoms for free Worse than that, I'll steal all the chocolate Out your dear chocolate chip cookies Purposely misplace your keys Be the reason why you sneeze When I say green you think of cheese But in my mind, I'm picturing some fresh tangerines You take pictures, I'll fake a smile through gritting teeth You might surmise it's not the same But you know that I won't play your game Wasted all your day and let me get away with it If you look like me, don't go out at night To a man on edge, you could give a fright And in self-defence, he'll take out a knife Wouldn't want to cause a scene Looking like it's time for me to fly away Maybe I'll see you another day Sike, you're probably going the other way So give a smother to my brother when you see him, okay? Luckily, on my diet, I don't eat meat For someone who looks like an animal, I'm rather picky! Not a monster 'cause I don't hate babies I don't skip cut-scenes Eating my own kind is against my beliefs You, though had no problem tearing life and limb from Ted and Jim, so Made of stone, your evil heart must be Could be that your cup of love is filled with liquid savagery O-o-oh, yippadie-dee, oh, yippadie-doh, doh Went to the potluck with scones You won't take any home, I know But I suppose maybe I just want to do some baking Take it from me, looks couldn't kill, no, but they can get you disowned "We won't look at her" Is that so? Then my baked goods are no longer free for the taking Thanks for the pizza, I'll take a mango, blend it up real nice and slow My dear friends, I have made it home Rewarded with time alone
