lyrics

LAUREN’S THEME

If there was a Lauren’s Theme
I don’t want you to sing
of woe and misery
of dangerous myths we bring
to wealthy girls from privileged schools
discusted with their lots
Wanting boys stronger than dad
Singing sweeter than mom had
If there is a Lauren’s
There was a Lauren’s theme
thats when the chorus came

In all your fantasies there is a great divide
Smashed on bathroom tile
or watching from the drive
she tried to hide in her big tudor house
Oh was it written on her spine
it said
“In all our dreams, she’ll break or win,
be our new fantasy.”

But when she smiles
with her long brown hair
and her dazzling figure

“In all our dreams, she’ll break or win,
be our new fantasy.”
“It will not end, it does not end,
it goes on indefinitely.”
