Lyrics
What's your big worry, you'll be born on the wind,
Twister girl.
Falling through grey skies the color begins,
Whole new world
And before you knew,
Little people telling you what to do.
Surrender Dorothy, I know,
You never turned your back to the camera
Only on the yellow brick road
Surrender Dorothy, I see,
That one can wake from the strangest dreams,
And only be thinking of home, only be thinking of home...
You're no new beauty, you're a veteran of pain,
Judy blue.
It's not your duty, if he don't have a brain,
Take your cue.
Before you knew, I'll get you you and your little dog, too
Surrender Dorothy, I know,
You never turned your back to the camera,
Only on the yellow brick road.
It took me years to believe, that one could wake from the strangest dreams,
And only be thinking of home, only be thinking of home...
I could while away the hours,
And send you thoughts like flowers,
Pretend your tears make rain,
With the thoughts that I've been thinking,
I can feel my borders shrinking
And with only half a brain.
