For Tinkerbell
Catatonia
Way Beyond Blue (1996)

Forgive me if I seem
to be impatient and obscene
It’s just I’d like to fall so flat
and hear the voices shouting back

Tinkerbell should have waited
before turning on the tv show
Tinkerbell should have waited
before turning on the tv show

As orange buffoons dance
they booked a faker in advance
Left purple jungles in a trance
to raise the nepotistic chant

Tinkerbell should have waited
before turning on the tv show
Tinkerbell should have waited
before turning on the tv show

Tinkerbell should have waited
before turning on the tv show
She should have waited
she should have waited
before the show

The tv show (la la la la la la) the tv show
The tv show (la la la la la la) the tv show

So you want to be a star?
Tell the monkey where you are
Look the monkey in the eye
(the tv show, the tv show)

Did you fly into a rage?
Did you lust for centre stage?
Look the monkey in the eye
(the tv show, the tv show)

Did you yearn to leave your mark?
did you swear that you’d go far?
look the monkey in the eye
(the tv show, the tv show)

If you want to be a star
tell the monkey where you are
look the monkey in the eye
(the tv show, the tv show)

La la la la la la la la la la la la
