  • What have they been telling you
    About the way things are?
    Could you have foreseen back then
    That you would come this far?
    It was touch and go there for a while
    Don't you agree?

    Did you play with Barbie dolls
    When no one else was around?
    Pardon me if I sound ignorant
    But the change is so profound
    What was going through your head
    As they struck you down to the ground?

    What they think is patriotic
    Barely passes for robotic
    And not one of them could last
    Three minutes in your shoes
    The darkness almost swallowed you up
    That must have been quite a case of the blues

    I know that I'm supposed to be
    Incensed by what they say you've done
    But I only feel compassion 'cause
    They're liars, every one
    You've been keeping secrets all your life
    But now you are done

    Chelsea is a butterfly, she metamorphisized
    You can't catch her with your net
    'Cause she is free inside
    You can't stop the progress of the truth
    Try as you might
    You can't stop the progress of the truth
    Try as you might Writer/s: John Grant
