Lyrics
Fiesta, signora
Unable to ignore a
Desire, on fire
Queen of the higher wire
From helter to skelter
Erratic elevator
Conjuror of chutzpah
Abracadabra
Flash pan passions, unlimited
There's a brass band
Playing inside her head
And the glasshouse shatters
When the unsaid's said
Fragile walls come down
Bipolar Paula
From vice then to versa
For better or worse
She's refused to pursue
The lithium rescue
That's meant to straighten out everything
She prefers to live her life in full
Hey presto, yo largo
A rationale embargo
Travels through a black hole
Ends at a rainbow
Disorder, contorta
No box for this Pandora
Social stigmata
Unexplained euphoria
Friendly fire
She's so exposed
Cos her heads cross wired
Blows hot then cold
Moods mushrooming out of control
Emotional disco
Bipolar Paula
From vice then to versa
For better or worse
She's refused to pursue
The lithium rescue
That's meant to straighten out everything
She prefers to live her life in full
Empowered Paula
The verbal revolver
She shoots from the hip
Her grip is losing control then
Melancholy to mania's let out
And there's so little doubt
That its permanently
Pulling her strings
