Alice

Hello my name is Alice And I like this boy you see His name is Jimmy Alexander And he's the one for me Captain of the football team All around gorgeous guy When I dream about him day and night I am forced to ask myself "why?" Why don't I make a move Or ask him for a date Yes, I think I'll go for it And then follow the course of fate Now I must find the courage Somewhere deep inside I seem him in the hallway But I want to run and hide Here goes nothing It could be my lucky day As I take a deep breath I think of what to say "Hi Jimmy, It's me, Alice. From Biology 101. Would you like to maybe go out Saturday night? I think we'd have some fun." All of his friends turn to see He's got a smirk on his face Suddenly I feel cornered I need some serious space! Now my brain clicks on In come clouds of doubt Please, I don't want to hear the answer I just want out! My tears drowned out his shallow response I turned and began to run Then he shouted over the laughter "Now this is what I call fun!" So I plot revenge In my room alone All I see are shades of gray Everyone speaking in a monotonous tone Now I think I've got it! I'll make you feel pain Never again will you take a girl like me And mark her as your gain. So when the hurt is stabbing you Like a thousand knives Know this is what you've done To so many innocent lives Up on your pedestal You will forever stay But six feet underground Is where I will eternally lay.Rejection can be cruel Written June 1st, 2000 © on Jan 05 2002 03:42 PM PST    0 • 1
