Couldn't you tell lies to me?
|
Couldn't you say I'm pretty?
|
Now that's enough
|
Tells me that she hates the play ground
|
How can they hurt, words are just sounds
|
So take your shot.
|
|
I don't want to see that they're making it hard for me
|
At home I cry
|
Bet that you think that you're on your own
|
And you've no one's hand to hold
|
Sticks and stones
|
Hurt just a little
|
Wouldn't it be wrong if we're all the same?
|
Don't surrender don't you change
|
Sticks and stones
|
Hurt just a little
|
|
With all the mean words they're ugly
|
Starting to see I'm lucky
|
And that's enough
|
I'd rather be alone in my world
|
I'd rather be the girl that gets hurt
|
So take your shot
|
|
I don't want to see that they're making it hard for me
|
At home I cry
|
Bet that you think that you're on your own
|
And you've no one's hand to hold
|
Sticks and stones
|
|
Hurt just a little
|
Wouldn't it be wrong if we're all the same
|
Don't surrender don't you change
|
Sticks and stones
|
Hurt just a little
|
|
Too young to buy my own bottle of vodka
|
So I'd beg the driver please I need another
|
How funny that I was too young for so many things
|
Yet you thought I'd cope with being told I'm ugly
|
Over and over I'd read it believe it
|
Said no to the shrink I can fix me I think
|
I got friends in my head they've got me on the mend
|
I am pretty in my mirror, easy to pretend
|
17 and thought that I'd won the jackpot
|
Seems I didn't read between the lines of this one
|
I can't think why I could of made you so, so angry
|
Your bullets I don't feel them come on and fire at me
|
|
Bet that you think that you're on your own
|
And you've no one's hand to hold
|
Sticks and stones
|
Hurt just a little
|
Wouldn't it be wrong if we're all the same
|
Don't surrender don't you change
|
Sticks and stones
|
Hurt just a little
|
Hurt just a little
|
