It's a Pity

Life is the stupidest thing
You love it more than anything
Just when you've started your show
Someone says it's time to go

You just stood there as a little girl
Nice dress on nice curls
Soon you see people turning away
From the smell of decay

And what you did
It matters not
This is the ticket
That you've got
And what you did
It matters not
This is the ticket
That you've got

It's a pity
It's a pity
You wished it was
A little more pretty
It's a pity
It's a pity
You wished it was
A little more pretty

Really glad you crossed my way
Really glad you stayed
Really glad you took the time
To hold your hand in mine

Really glad we've had this thing
To dance and sway and swing
And as sand trickles down the glass
Give me a kiss before the last

And what you did
It matters not
This is the ticket
That you've got
And what you did
It matters not
This is the ticket
That you've got

It's a pity
It's a pity
You wished it was
A little more pretty
It's a pity
It's a pity
You wished it was
A little more pretty

This is the end of your life as you knew it
No one asks for if you blew it
There's the door and you have to go through it
There's no turning around and you know it

Of course you wish you've had some more pirouettes
Some more solos and fewer regrets
Never mind there might be another round
Never mind there might be another round

And what you did
It matters not
This is the ticket
That you've got
And what you did
It matters not
This is the ticket
That you've got

It's a pity
It's a pity
You wished it was
A little more pretty
It's a pity
It's a pity
You wished it was
A little more pretty
It's a pity
It's a pity
Even so
It's quite pretty
It's a pity
It's a pity
Even so
It's quite pretty
