Touch and Go

What have they been telling you

About the way things are?

Could you have foreseen back then

That you would come this far?

It was touch-and-go there for a while

Don't you agree?

Did you play with Barbie dolls

When no one else was around?

Pardon me if I sound ignorant

But the change is so profound

What was going through your head

As it struck you down to the ground?

What they think is patriotic

Barely passes for robotic

And not one of them could last

Three minutes in your shoes

A darkness almost swallowed you up

That must have been quite a case of the blues

I know that I'm supposed to be

Incensed by what they say you've done

But I only feel compassion, girl

'Cause they’re liars, every one

You’ve been keeping secrets all your life

But now you are done

Chelsea is a butterfly

She metamorphosized

You can’t catch her with your net

‘Cause she is free inside

You can’t stop the process of the truth

Try as you might

You can’t stop the process of the truth

Try as you might
