oingo boingo - cinderella undercover (demo) lyrics

[verse 1]
when i was young, my mind would always wander away
i couldn’t talk, i never had nothin’ to say
but now i’m grown and nothing much seems to have changed
i think i’m going insane, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[verse 2]
is this a fairytale; are you the seven dwarves?
did snow white really die while fighting in the war?
they were the only friends i ever trusted
and now they’re scattered and livin’ in the city
unlisted numbers, it’s such a pity

[chorus]
cinderella undercover
i say, better alive than dead

[verse 3]
the war is coming, but there’s nothing much that we can do
stuck in a payphone but the operator won’t let me through
i close my eyes, but the memories burn in my brain
i think i’m going insane, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[verse 4]
i heard a rumor: they said it’s gone nuclear
i stockpile cigarettes and double+bolt the door
a sanctuary for all my friends
i’ll stay in bed until the world ends
so please don’t wake me; i’ve got to, got to get away!
[chorus]
cinderella undercover
i say, better alive than dead

[verse 5]
i read the papers, the goose is dead
they k!lled it looking for the golden egg
but all they got was feathers

[bridge]
is this a fairytale? this can’t be real
there’s fighting all around
they’re shooting in the fields
they say that values change when hunger or ambition strikes
survival is essential at any cost or any price
the cartoon animals on old mcdonald’s farm
are nodding off in hotel rooms with needles in their arms
the seven dwarves, well, there’s only four alive today
and cinderella is working for the cia

[verse 6]
cinderella, the fairytale’s over
and you should know; you got scars to prove it
and your skin isn’t as soft as it used to
but i don’t care; come on, you, come on and spread ’em baby
[chorus]
cinderella undercover
i say, better alive than dead
cinderella undercover
