Oh! Vanity
When I was a little child, what you'd call a runaway
Find me with a latch and key crawling in the dirt
There's a problem just for me, I have a thousand worlds to see
Always one for running wild and dressing up to be like you
Oh vanity, oh vanity will keep me from insanity
This heart of mine would rather die than live a life of humanity
And now I'm all grown up to be a paranoid schizophrenic
My friends are all like me and you, I can't tell 'em what to do
There's another world to see
Lie down with dogs and you'll get fleas
When Paris gave her hand to me
It felt like an eternity
Now as I feel I'm growing up
It's like a drug, it's like a drug
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh vanity, oh vanity, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Find me with a latch and key crawling in the dirt
There's a problem just for me, I have a thousand worlds to see
Always one for running wild and dressing up to be like you
Oh vanity, oh vanity will keep me from insanity
This heart of mine would rather die than live a life of humanity
And now I'm all grown up to be a paranoid schizophrenic
My friends are all like me and you, I can't tell 'em what to do
There's another world to see
Lie down with dogs and you'll get fleas
When Paris gave her hand to me
It felt like an eternity
Now as I feel I'm growing up
It's like a drug, it's like a drug
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh vanity, oh vanity, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
Oh promise me, oh promise me, you'll save the one last dance for me
