They look for picture perfect
G4 F4# E4 F4# G4 F4# E4 E4
Don’t look deeper than the surface
C4 D4 E4 A3, A3# C4 D4 G4#
Bubblegum always pops and
G4 F4# E4 F4# G4 F4# E4
Stars they fade out, life never stops
C4 D4 E4 A3, A3# C4 D4 G4#
I don’t do what Simon says
A3 B3 A3 B3 A3 B3 A3 B4
Get the message ’cause it’s read
A3 B3 A3 B3 A3 B3 A3 B4
That’s just life, it never plays fair
B3 B3 B3 G3 B3 B3 B3 A3 B3 C4 B3 A3
Said to follow any dream
A3 B3 A3 B3 A3 B3 A3 B4
Be a puppet on a string
A3 B3 A3 B3 A3 B3 A3 B4
Works for you but that isn’t me
A4 B4 B4 G4 A4 B4 C5 A4 B4 C5 B4 A4
This ain’t another pop song ’bout fallin’ in love
Or a party song ’bout drinks and drugs
No more singing songs ’bout breakin’ my heart
And my lonely nights, dancin’ in the dark
