Songtexte So Dramatic - Crowded House

(And one, two, three, four, five, six)

You turned 11 in '79
In plain dark paper, the present arrived
Found the costume and makeup inside

Ooh, you're so dramatic
But is it wise to underline your eyes?

The main attraction, the star on your door
The call to action and blood on the floor
You crave attention like never before

Ooh, you're so dramatic
But is it wise to underline your eyes?

The coats behind you, the shadow of doubt
The crowd of people that follow you about

Ooh, you're so dramatic
But is it wise to underline your eyes?

And truth is so worn down
Can hardly raise its head, it slowly dies
And if you want to make it right, right, right

Ooh, you're so dramatic
And is it wise to underline your eyes?

And if you want to take the prize
You'll have to make a sacrifice
If you were like all the rest
A victim of your own success
If you want to take the prize
