Lyrics
Plain Jane
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.
So simple hearted and not so remarkable
As an ordinance with the common folk
Expecting nothing from the coming
Of another person's joke
And what you do remains as empty
When it's full of giving life
So that no one sees the deeds you've done
And no ones hears you cry
You make all the fashion statements
Just by dressing up your mind
Stay free, stay the same
Play it straight
And own your name
Plain Jane
You're a hero and you hardly know it
So it goes again
You're the reason that I fell in love
You're the reason that I am
Your belief in being normal means
To wrap around my hand
You are more than just the average girl
You've more to give the world
Yet you keep your secrets to yourself
Till you press them to a pearl
You are everything the every man wants to see
And longs to be
Stay free, stay the same
Play it straight
And own your name
Plain Jane
You're as you are
Your mother made it so
As you are
Your mother made a star
You'll go far
If you stay free, stay the same
Play it straight
And own your name
Plain Jane
Stay free, stay the same
Play it straight
And own your name
Plain Jane
