Harlivy

We're a lot like two circus girls
Who can only dream of ruling the world.
We're partners in crime,
But not in the sense that we "do time."

I'll be the harlequin sweetheart,
If you be the green activist who just had to quit.
While we let the good times roll,
The rest of 'em will just have to deal with it.

We're a lot like two famous criminals,
Who only want what's best for themselves.
We're women with such wisdom and strength.
No one can ever put out this light.
