Prom Dress and a Sneer

Description

Somewhat modified lyrics upon which this doodle was based

This is your new thing now
Naked as a rose
Everything exposed
But not quite
This is your new thing now
Cards out on the table
A genius with no label
But not quite, not quite

Gee, it's good to see a dream come true
People smile and bless all over you
Mixing up those latest junkie-isms
With all the pretty terms of religion
And don't you love the leader of the band
Equal parts Butthead and Peter Pan
All the other kids are sad again
A legend's not a legend 'til it ends

This is your new thing now
And it makes the whole world spin
It's as least as old as sin
But not quite
This is your new thing now
And now you're turning grinning
But maybe no one's listening
And you might lose it all my darling, yes you might

This is my new thing now
And it looks so good in print
Just a poet and her pimps
But not quite
This is my new thing now
A prom dress and a sneer
The woman of the year
But not quite, not quite

This is your new thing now
And it feels so good to doubt you
I could almost live without you
But not quite
