When the cars are all in knots
And the clocks are looming
When the puddles have all sploshed
And her dress is fuming
With her brolly inside out
And her head scarf streaming
I don't know how but she always keeps on
I don't know how but she always keeps on
Beaming
When her ribs are wide as arms
And her hope's capsizing
Still those cartoon stars and hearts
Swirl round every miser
Bashed and dashed against the rocks
With mascara pouring
I don't know how but she always comes out
I don't know how, but she always comes out
Soaring
I feel a high crashing to Earth
She feels a rest well deserved
I see a low bottomless pit
She sees a well and makes a wish
Sha la la la, la la la, la la la, look at her light up
Sha la la la, la la la, la la la, lighting the night up
Sha la la la, la la la, la la la, look at her light up
Sha la la la, la la la, la la la, lighting the night up
