rate me

Margery's dreaming of the middle of the day<br>Tiyuri to win<br>Perfect dozen to place<br>Money is the matter that's been on her mind<br>Time ticks by her one race at a time<br><br>She's tryin' to be a good girl<br>And give 'em what they want<br>But margery's dreaming of horses<br><br>Lookin' at a green sky<br>Sun like a red eye<br>Bright blue horses are the fortune she lives by<br>She's tired and lonely<br>Scared and depressed<br>Her visions of one day go racing the next<br><br>She's trying to be a good girl<br>And give 'em what they want<br>But margery's dreaming of horses<br><br>Margie doesn't say anything all the way home<br>So afraid she'll awake to find she's all alone<br><br>Margery's wingspan's all feathers and coke cans, and<br>Tv dinners and letters she won't send, and<br>Every race night is shot through with sunlight<br>Trying to hit the big one one last time tonight for...<br>Drunken fathers and stupid mothers and<br>Boys who can't tell one girl from another<br>So she takes her pills<br>Careful and round<br>One of these days she's gonna throw the whole bottle down<br><br>But she's trying to be a good girl<br>And give 'em what they want<br>But margery's dreaming of...<br><br>Trying to be a good girl<br>And give 'em what they want<br><br>But margery's dreaming of horses
