Lyrics
Trainwreck
Billie's larger than life, a walkin' circus fantastic/
A charismatic dramatic that trips the world on its head
Just when you think she's found some sense of reason/
You get dead stopped in your tracks, you ain't seen nothin' yet
Billie she's been one with the couch since this mornin',
Just can't seem to get it together today/
She's tried alcohol, been prescribed medications
But no one remembers her not bein' this way
Oh you never know who you'll get/The beautiful, fun-loving, daredevil girl/
Or the magnificent mess/
The trainwreck
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Billie shaved off her hair last New Year as the ball dropped/The people who love her we've all stopped askin' why
And if she's lookin' to wear her silver locket she's lost it/Like everything else in her life
Oh you never know who you'll get/The beautiful, fun-loving, daredevil girl/
Or the magnificent mess/
The trainwreck
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
