Lyrics
Elaine
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.
Here she comes again, smiling like a horse
God he was asleep on that day she was born
Riding her bike with the sun in her eyes
finding her way in a world that still smiles
Here she comes again, dancin like clown
God he went astray on the day she arrived
she's stumbling ashore, like a pig in a pond
Ready to fly, ready to die
The world is a cruel affair
if you don't dance to a common beat
People are cruel Elaine, if you don't fit the bill
The world is so cold out there
if you dance to a different beat
people are scared, believe me Elaine
Here she comes again, dressing like a clown
God she's different, puts a smile on your face
Here she comes again, smiling like a horse
God he was asleep on that day she was born
Riding her bike with the sun in her eyes
finding her way in a world that still smiles
The world is a cruel affair
if you don't dance to a common beat
People are cruel Elaine, if you don't fit the bill
The world is so cold out there
if you dance to a different beat
but, people are scared, believe me Elaine
They say it's the inside that matters
now that's a lie, what a lie
Fly by strange little bird fly by...fly home
