lyrics

We used to dress up in dresses
And I felt secure with him and dirt, and tea
Playing with our figures him and, me playing with him and me

And we danced around and sang show tunes really really proud
It was fun, It was fun!
And it felt, felt so good!
So loud!

We dressed up and it was more than pretend
To be royalty

We never had a ball, no
We never had a ball
That’s true
That’s true
That’s true
That’s true!

We just had me and You
And the balls that bounced and pretended to be
You and me
There were three

We had to be really quiet
Because Your mother and brothers were downstairs
And we were watching their pornos
Playing showtunes and him and me, and
Oooh! Oooh! Oooh! Oooh! Oooh!
Oooh! Oooh! Oooh! Oooh! Oooh!

And we sang showtunes, dancing
Really, Really
Loud! Loud! Loud! Loud!

I had fun with it all, sticking my tongue in Your mouth
We pretended to be things from the books we read, but it was only fairy tales

We never had a ball, no
We never had a ball

I’m not free, free, free, still, still
We just had You and we just had me, still

And the balls that orbited around the Christmas tree
There were three
