PIXIE
i'm a pixie
i'm a paperdoll
i'm a cartoon
i'm a chipper cheerful free-for-all
and i light up a room
i'm the color-me-happy girl
miss live and let live
and when they're out for blood
i always give

the man behind the counter looks like
he's got a half a dozen places he'd rather be
furthermore it looks like he's prepared
to take it all out on me
buddy, i don't really care what your problem is
jsut don't make it mine
come on kids, lets all hold hands
and pretend we're having a good time

maybe you don't like your job
maybe you didn't get enough sleep
well nobody likes their job
and nobody got enough sleep
maybe you just had
the worst day of your life
but, you know, there's no escape
and there's no excuse
so just suck up, suck up and be nice

all the privleged white kids on tv
playing at death
brandishing their cold cuts
with their ghostly make-up
and their heroine breath
and the little fishies are flapping widly
on their hooks
while all the top critics find great meaning
in the telephone book

the little emperor he has no clothes
so he can't come out to play
and besides which life is suffering
and he likes it that way
and the little guy is not so friendly
but you know life has been cruel
so wipe that smile off your face baby
and try to be cool

maybe you don't like your job
maybe you didn't get enough sleep
while nobody likes their job
and nobody got enough sleep
maybe you just had
the worst day of you life
but, you know, there's no escape
there's no excuse
so just suck up, suck up and be nice

yeha, i would like to perfect the art
of being studiously aloof
like life is jsut a boring chore
and i'm living proof
i could join forces with an army
of ornery hipsters
but then i guess i'd be out of a job
so i guess that's out of the picture

cuz i'm a pixie
i'm a paperdoll
i'm a cartoon
i'm a chipper cheerful free-for-all
and i light up a room
i'm the color-me-happy girl
miss live and let live
and when they're out for blood
i always give
