lyrics

Sorry little Lola, you seem to be away
From the girl we used to gaze on every weekday
I don’t know if you still like the teenage you were
By now
I remember that you always wanted to be
The leader of the pack, the sole queen of beauty
With all of these boys at your feet

The classroom is empty
The teachers are retired
Now you can show us what you really are

You wanted to be rich
To be someone and climb
The stairway to light, you just fell downstairs

Is this what you’ve become?
On your way to freedom
The single that you always feared to be

An ex boyfriend in jail
You drink and smoke again
Everything is clear and true but…

I know you’re still weeping
Your make up is running
We’ve all changed since our last meeting

The despair you confess
Your cheap and nasty dress
Makes you even more attractive, please...

Don’t take your bloody pills
Forget the way it seems
Yes You can ask me everything you need

I know you can be free
And happy as can be
Everything is clear and true but…

Tonight is the big night
The big band, the spotlights
Yes You can ask me everything you want
Just give me your consent
The friends back from the past
The teachers, all the cast
Yes You can ask me everything you need
Just tell me you agree
Stand up and dance with me, tonight
