Girl who would say yes
I've been thinking a lot lately about the girl who would say yes
She wouldn't have to be no "Molly Bloom" but I confess
She would have to stay up late, sometimes all night
And when we finally wake, always in fright
I've been thinking a lot about the education that got away
I found something in a book but then I had to look away
Away from denial, betrayal and greed
Away from the rotting fruit of a fresh need
I've been thinking a lot about the treats under my nose
Reveal themselves in a dream, and the pleasure takes you home
Not home as in a place, but home as in a feeling
Amongst all the cutout pictures stapled to the ceiling
I've been thinking a lot lately about the girl who would say yes
I laugh sometimes late at night just to find her in my nest
She said yes to my past and to my future
And yes to who I am now
No need to confuse her
She wouldn't have to be no "Molly Bloom" but I confess
She would have to stay up late, sometimes all night
And when we finally wake, always in fright
I've been thinking a lot about the education that got away
I found something in a book but then I had to look away
Away from denial, betrayal and greed
Away from the rotting fruit of a fresh need
I've been thinking a lot about the treats under my nose
Reveal themselves in a dream, and the pleasure takes you home
Not home as in a place, but home as in a feeling
Amongst all the cutout pictures stapled to the ceiling
I've been thinking a lot lately about the girl who would say yes
I laugh sometimes late at night just to find her in my nest
She said yes to my past and to my future
And yes to who I am now
No need to confuse her
