Oingo Boingo - Cinderella Undercover Lyrics
When I was young, my mind would always wander awayI couldnt talk, never had nothin to sayBut now Im grown, nothing much seems to have changedI think Im going insane yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahIs this a fairy tale, are you the seven dwarvesDid snow white really die while fighting in the war?They were the only friends I ever trustedNow theyre scattered, and livin in the cityUnlisted numbers, huhCinderella undercoverI say, better alive than deadThe war is coming, but theres nothing much that we can doStuck in a pay-phone, but the operator wont let me throughI close my eyes, but the memories burn in my brainI think Im going insane yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahI heard a rumor, they said its gone nuclearI stockpile cigarettes, and double bold the doorA sanctuary for all my friendsWell stay in bed until the world endsSo please dont wake me, I gotta get some sleepCinderella undercoverI say, better alive than deadI think Im going insane, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahIs this a fairy tale, this cant be realTheres fighting all around, theyre shooting in the fieldsThey say that values change when hunger or ambition strikesSurvival is essential, at any cost or any priceThe cartoon animals on old mcdonalds farmAre nodding off in hotel rooms with needles in their armsThe seven dwarves, ha!, theres only four alive todayCinderellas working for the ciaCinderella, the fairy tales overYou should know, you got the scars to prove itAnd your skin isnt as soft as it used toBut I dont care, come on you said it babyCinderella undercoverI say, better alive thanCinderella undercoverI say, better alive than dead
