Plain Disguised As Pretty

about

Taken from the Songs of Mild Peril series.

Songs of Mild Peril are songs about life not always being as it seems. The flip-side. Literal meanings amidst the ambiguous, abstract, bleak and oblique. Songs about the world and the human condition from the comfort and terror of midlife.


Plain Disguised As Pretty

She could fool some of the people some of the time ...

lyrics

You're plain disguised as pretty
You hide behind cool shades and a big red smile
Your friends up in the city think it's a pity
You only come out once in a while

You the knock the top off of mountains
And fill the valley below with your tears
You're plain disguised as pretty
And nobody knows
You're plain disguised as pretty
Get on with the show

It ain't the universe that's growing
It's just the space in between that's expanding in time
And soon you'll be showing, they'll say you're glowing
But even fool's gold can shine

Never fledge into darkness
Or take your eyes off the show
You say you're plain disguised as pretty
And nobody knows
You're plain disguised as pretty
Get on with the show

You're plain disguised as pretty but nobody knows
You're plain disguised as pretty get on with the show
You're plain disguised as pretty and nobody knows
You're plain disguised as pretty and don't want no-one to know
