Tunic (Song For Karen)

[Kim]

Dreaming

dreaming of a girl like me

hey what are you waiting for?

feeding

feeding me?

i feel like i'm disappearing

getting smaller every day

but i look in the mirror

and i'm bigger in every way

she said

you aren't never going anywhere

you aren't never going anywhere

i ain't never goin' anywhere

i ain't never goin' anywhere

i'm in heaven now

i can see you Richard

goodbye Hollywood, goodbye Danny

hello Janis, hello Dennis, Elvis

and all my brand new friends

i'm so glad you're all here with me

until the very end

dreaming

dreaming of how it's supposed to be

but now this tunic's spinning

around my arms and knees

i feel like i'm disappearing

getting smaller every day

but when i open my mouth to sing

i'm bigger in every way

she said

you are never going anywhere

you are never going anywhere

i aint' never goin' anywhere

i aint' never goin' anywhere

hey mum look

i'm up here

i finally made it

i play in a drumsband too

don't be sad

the band doesn't sound half bad

and i remember mum

what you said

you said honey

you look so underfed

[lots of background talking (incomprehensible)]

another green salad

another ice tea

there's a tunic in the closet

waiting just for me

i feel like i'm disappearing

getting smaller every day

but i look in your eyes

and i'm bigger in every way

she said

you aren't never going anywhere

you aren't never going anywhere

i ain't never going anywhere

i ain't never going anywhere

goodbye Richard

got to go now

i'm finally on my own

but then i start again

keep your lovelights glowing

little girl's got the blues

i can still hear mama say

honey don't let it go to your head
