The Emperors New Clothes

( )

Verse 1

It seems years since you held the baby while I wrecked the bedroom

You said it was dangerous after Sunday and I knew you loved me

He thinks I just became famous and that s what messed me up but he s wrong

How could I possibly know what I want when I was only twenty-one?

There s millions of people to offer advice and say how I should be

But they re twisted and they will never be

Any influence on me but you will always be

You will always be


Chorus

If I treated you mean

I really didn t mean to

But you know how it is and how a pregnancy can change you


Verse 2

I see plenty of clothes that I like but I won t go anywhere nice for a while

All I want to do is just sit here and write it all down and rest for a while

I can t bear to be in another city one where you are not

I would return to nothing without you if I m your girlfriend or not


Chorus

Maybe I was mean

But I really don t think so

You asked if I m scared and I said so


Verse 3

Everyone can see what s going on

They laugh `cause they know they re untouchable not because what I said was wrong

Whatever it may bring I will live by my own policies

I will sleep with a clear conscience I will sleep in peace


Chorus

Maybe I was mean

But I really don t think so

You asked for the truth and I told you



Through their own words

They will be exposed

They ve got a severe case of

The emperor s new clothes

The emperor s new clothes

The emperor s new clothes
