lyrics

My mood swings back and forth
i'm the chameleon girl
My palette is infinite
i'm the chameleon girl
My black is black
my white is white
but in between colours fight which will get me for a while

City-dressed i wear my urban make-up
i am a highway

I am a highway
a dead end in an open space
a supermarket
a dead end in an open space
but if you rest with me i promise
i put an end
i put an end to all this poetry

no more, no more,
poetry no more.

Undisturbed i lie in my bed
i'm the octopus girl
see me now you can't
i'm the octopus girl
decorated with junk, up for betrayal
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 my tentacles grab
whatever is there

City-dressed i wear my urban make-up
i am a highway

I am a highway
a dead end in an open space
a supermarket
a dead end in an open space
but if you rest with me i promise
i put an end to all this poetry

poetry no more.

i'm the chameleon girl
i'm the elephant girl
i'm the octopus girl
