There was a time

I was living as a prisoner inside my own mind

And there was a time

Where the cat and mouse tried to make me

Barbie sized and I obliged.

Pulled leather over my eyes in a hundred degree heat

People out here getting fired for chocolate in the back seat

(True story)

I had too much of my fill and turns out it wasn't cheap

People always hung around who only wanted skin deep.

And now I'm saying

No more melon cakes on birthdays

No more barricades in doorways

Finally get to do things my way

La-la-la-la-la-la-la...

You could find me

Starving for attention most days

Amongst others things, god help me

Finally get to do things my way

La-la-la-la-la-la-la...

No more melon cake

There was a time

I was pulled in all directions and forgot about mine

But I wouldn't wish

Those thoughts on my worst enemy

They make you wish you don't exist.

Pulled leather over my eyes in a hundred degree heat

People out here getting fired for chocolate in the back seat

I had too much of my fill and turns out it wasn't cheap

People always hung around who only wanted skin deep.

And now I'm saying

No more melon cakes on birthdays

No more barricades in doorways

Finally get to do things my way

La-la-la-la-la-la-la...

You could find me

Starving for attention most days

Amongst others things, god help me

Finally get to do things my way

La-la-la-la-la-la-la...

No more melon cake

No more melon cake

No more melon cake

No more melon cake.

Dear little me

I'm sorry that it took so long

But, baby, you're free.

And now I'm saying

No more melon cakes on birthdays

No more barricades in doorways

Finally get to do things my way

La-la-la-la-la-la-la...

You could find me

Starving for attention most days

Amongst others things, god help me

Finally get to do things my way

La-la-la-la-la-la-la...

No more melon cake.
