Mrs. Actually

Look, look at them go

Thinkin' they know

Are they sure?

Cruel, cruel are their ways

Numbered, their days

You can't repay

Watch, watch as they run

The race has been won

They're dying to play

You, watching their cryin'

Checking their time

As slowly, they die

You feed me a line

We'll travel to the sky

But you leave me behind

I could never run away, no

I could never run away, this time

Watch, as gypsy girls play

Powder boys stay

You turn to hate

Sneak to backward hotels

Making their hell

Before it's too late

Catch the worker bees go

Sinking so low

Each one alone

Watch as their worlds collide

And you're stuck inside

Keep them alive

You feed me a line

We'll travel to the sky

But you leave me behind

I could never run away, no

I could never run away, this time

Now I know what I've not been told

The world is crying so loud

Stuck and sick, and my wings been clipped

Lift me up off the ground

Help me now
