Lyrics
Maria
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Billie Joe, it certainly is exciting to meet you here
At the recording studio right after you just made your very first record
How does it feel?
Umm, wonderful!
She smashed the radio with the board of education
Turn up the static left of the state of the nation
Turn up the flame, step on the gas
Burning the flag at half mast
She's a rebel's forgotten son
An expert of the revolution
She is the first voice of the last ones in the line
She'll drag the lake to keep the vendetta alive
Bring in the head of the government
The dog ate the document
Somebody shot the president
And no one knows where Maria went
Maria, Maria, Maria
Where did you go?
Be careful what you're offering
Your breath lacks the conviction
Drawing the line in the dirt
Because the last decision
Is no
She smashed the radio with the board of education
Turn up the static left of the state of the nation
Turn up the flame, step on the gas
Burning the flag at half mast
She's a rebel's forgotten son
An expert of the revolution
Maria, Maria, Maria
Where did you go?
Maria, Maria, Maria
Where did you go?
