all hail the prom queen
just another carbon copy
but they gave her a crown
so she has something to feel special about

but what makes her royalty
she’s just like the rest
maybe it’s the lower cut dress
or the way she makes you feel less

all of the girls want to be just like her
but little to they know they’re just like her
they never gave themselves a chance
to find their own way
do their own dance
darling you need to do your own dance

instead they just all hail the prom queen
transform into a carbon copy
but only one queen gets a crown
nothing left to feel special about

Come Sail Away With Me

Boats sail on the river
Ships sail on the seas
Clouds sail across skies
Feeling the ocean breeze
Bridges unite the river
Seagulls fly over the seas
Clouds cover the skies
Flourishing the air with ease
Ripples dance over the river
Winds blow in the seas
Rainbows adorn the skies
Smiling if you please
