Album: Mystery Prize
I could shut down the city
Throw you a parade
With circus tents and elephants
Firework displays
I could be Barnum or Bailey
An army of Rockettes
But I can’t compete with her in that dress
I could build a home for orphans
Walk across the Nile
Find a cure for cancer
Help your parents reconcile
I could be shot out of a cannon
Land on your front step
But I can’t compete with her in that dress
An unnerving sensation
A disturbing relationship
In which I’m envious of Bumps in the night
Tell me whyyyyyyy
I could show you how I love you
Every second of every day
I could tell you oh you are free to go But welcome to stay
I could guard your darkest secrets
Deep down in my chest
But I can’t compete with her in that dress
Wooo ohh ohh
No I can’t compete with her in that dress
