Wouldnt it be nice to be a heroine,
Cool and slinky with an appropriate smile?
Honey, I take sugar, two.
While hes ranting an raving,
Could you pass that cream?
I was looking to have a cupa tea.
Instead I freeze.
Seeing his next move, is it grabbing my hair?
Or bushing my tush till theres no scream left?
Wouldnt it be nice to be a heroine?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit?
Mm -
Wouldnt it be nice to be a hero,
Standing fast and easy with an appropriate grin?
Brother, not that way, theyll take you away.
Mm, give me your gun,
Its no use to anyone.
Instead I freeze.
Seeing if I shut up and stay real still,
Maybe he wont kill, at least not me.
Wouldnt it be nice to be a hero?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit?
Mm -
Wouldnt it be nice to be a star,
Shinin and sparklin, looking down the whole and plenty?
Being looked up with a telescope
While my sisters busy cutting the rope.
Daddy, you cant touch me,
Mommy, you cant hate me,
Im a star, get it?
Instead I froze.
And I let them, I let them,
I let them pick my brain,
Twist my arm,
Cut my throat
And wish me dead.
But Im still thinking,
Wouldnt it be nice to be a star?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit-wouldnit?
Wouldnit?
