We are grown ups Full grown *** adults Making out in the front seat of your car at the edge of a crowded parking lot in front of a high school where mothers are picking up their daughters from their first homecoming dance You know, like grownups do But that’s not really what we are Not here, not all day Today we’ve been movie characters We’ve been comic strip accidents We’ve been fairy tale destinies   The clock is striking midnight soon This fidgeter’s bracelet still doesn’t fit over these fat fingers Come morning you’ll be back in the castle Where princesses belong Stupid fairy god mothers always ******* up a perfectly good nursery rhyme
