Lyrics

Climb tclimb the wall to make the sun rise in time
But the night had already begun
Climb the wall to make the sun rise in time
But the night had already begun

Now here I am, I am the one
So hang high soft star
Don't shine, before swine

Not a lot of room to move, but where's my guide
I tried looking up to you girls
Please correct me, but didn't you let the work slide
Capitalize on a novelty, cheap pink, spotlight
Is it all right?

Choose the highest bidder was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high style
Bullies have always tried to buy the better girls
But failed now, the cheque is in the mail

Bubblegum bought martini
Is nothing like dépanneur red wine
Travel through time
Who were you after you were mine

Choose the highest bidder was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high style
Bullies have always tried to buy the better girls
Haven't they?

Choose the brightest future
Mind the death
And try to buy the better girls
But failed 'till now
Cheque is in the mail

So hang high
Soft rock star
Hang high
Soft rock star
Don't shine before swine

Choose the highest bidder was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high style
Bullies have always tried to buy the better girls, haven't they?

Choose the highest bidder was my answer
When they told me I was up for sale
Schoolyard, junior high style
Bullies have always tried to buy the better girls
But failed now, cheque is in the mail
