I know you too well
Flooding the water with land
Yes you have his eyes
But who has his lips
It's the horrorshow of tragedy
And you have the leading role
The legs and dresses perfected
A lethal combination of drama
Large painted eyes and ruby lips
Once you find the matching slippers
The yellow brick road will roll out for you
But I know you too well
You will add a fresh coat of paint
Adding some silver glitter
Because it didn't sparkle just right
The Queen of hearts
But you'd rather have diamonds
I know you too well
I'll be by your side
No matter if they tear up your dresses
Swing those hips for me one more time
Soaking up the applause
Always happier when you have the spotlight
Or perhaps the disco ball
Dorothy's got nothing on you
I'm the girl soaking up the shine
Off your glitter confetti praise
You're the boy with a plan
I know you too well.

January 1999
dedicated to a special friend, you know who you are.
