about
An ode to innocence and innocence lost. Young girls have an openness and creative whimsy that seems to be buried and forgotten by the time they reach a certain age. “Bring it back, bring back that sweetness / Don’t be afraid to show your weakness.”
lyrics
Intro:
Scientists have uncovered conclusive evidence that the origin of the universe was a "happy accident." Natural Selection. Improvisation. The survival of the cutest!
Lyrics:
Whatever happened to that princess?
The little girl who witnessed…
Pretty fairies on the daisies
Pretty fairies on the daisies
Pretty fairies on the daisies
I seen her grow older, I seen her grow colder
Bring her back, bring back that sweetness
Don’t be afraid to show your weakness
Got your defenses up
I want you to drop them for me
Got your defenses up
I want you to drop them for me
Whatever happened to the little girl who played
Imagined games that lasted days?
I seen her grow older, I seen her grow colder
I seen her grow older, give me the cold shoulder
Used to smile and say “hi”
Now she just pass me by
Afraid to be real with me
Bring her back, bring back that sweetness
Don’t be afraid to show your weakness
Got your defenses up, I want you to drop them for me
Pretty fairies on the daisies
