Here is the story of another girl
Not one of the big ones in the world
You wouldn't know it if you saw it on a bright day
It was a pearl that you could've loved
It was a pearl that you could've cherished
But when the time came all you did was look away ... now

Chorus:
Have you met my Auntie Jean
Are you simple, or very clean
Do you still believe in the big machine
Is there no reprieve from the big machine 

I didn't mean to make you upset
I didn't mean to ruin your day
Sometimes I really don't know why I say the things I say

So that's the story of another pearl
Not one of the big ones you see around the world
Do you know what I mean
Do you what I am saying?

(chorus)

Where is a story that I wanna hear
The one where I am the biggest hero
Why won't it, why can't it
Why didn't you make it all come true...now?

(chorus 2x)
