Watch Out Billie - Nerina Pallot

And my confession would have you on the floor
If you knew the truth
But that's the way they want you
Everyone's a sucker for the haze of youth
We're all prairie children
Brought up on the lies of the past
So it's no surprise then you will have to ask
Watch out billie 'fore you go to fast
You say it couldn't hurt
But then it couldn't last
You get fifteen minutes while they're watching you
You better hold your breath and hope your dreams come true
Watch out girl you'll never be the same
If it's a cruel world you gotta play the game
You get fifteen minutes while they know your face
You'd better pray to god you win the human race
I'm like the weather
Burning up to fire
Burning up to ice
But I'm deathly certain the little things we love shouldn't be denied
We get fed something
But we don't want it
We won't live our life with lies
You want your own heaven that you'll make better
You just want your own life
Watch out billie 'fore you go too fast
You say it couldn't hurt
But then it couldn't last
You get fifteen minutes while they're watching you
You better hold your breath and hope your dreams come true
Watch out girl you'll never be the same
If it's a cruel world you gotta play the game
You get fifteen minutes while they know your face
You'd better pray to god you win the human race
