...It hits my nose
Vanilla rose
An onyx ring
Wow, can she sing!

With long brown hair
And gorgeous eyes
Yeah, butterflies
The brightest smile
Seen f...

onstage, i want to turn to the band and say 'take me home, daddy'

...it would be a last request, before the gallows
like baloo sings it 
i'm being led there, the narrow path between the

Of that you can be sure
