SONG:Tiny Ugly World

Spotlights gleam across a star search nation.
a million cries of "me" drown out the cruel frustrations of a normal life.
it's a different kind of thinking.
a whole new way of telling lies 'til they're true.
when you're waiting for the light.
And we're all waiting for the same light these days.
a job well done is not enough without a front page photograph.
death comes quickly to the poor and obscure.
booby prizes for the kind and unsure.
when they're standing in the light.
40 channels of a daydream stimulation.
help me to forget myself and raise my expectations of a better life.
i'm ready to be special now.
get what i deserve and shine for an hour.
standing in the light.

and it would help if you could die.
(it's a tiny little world)
something fast and tragic at an early age.
guilty soon as you try.
(teeny tiny little heroes)
get a sense of history put yourself on the page.
it's an ugly sight.
(in a tiny ugly world)
when everybody's on the stage.

she's got a face to launch a thousand supersonic jets.
a waitress in another life, how easily she forgets.
looks back with a sigh to simpler days.
she's not ungrateful, just caught up in the chase.
still waiting for the light.

and it would help if you could die.
(it's a tiny little world)
something fast and tragic at an early age.
guilty soon as you try.
(teeny tiny little heroes)
get a sense of history put yourself on the page.
it's an ugly sight.
(in a tiny ugly world)
when everybody's on the stage.
Think of me.
(it's a tiny little world)
watch what you do. watch what you say.
drink with me.
(teeny tiny little heroes)
i'd be so grateful, if you could think of a way to pay.
don't dream of me.
(in a tiny ugly world)
have it any other way.
