Mary Anne, you're better than the world

They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl

I said Mary Anne, you're better than the world

They did a lot of things right on this girl

Had a lot of girlfriends

I should have known them

Click your heels and count back from three

Do you wanna go back?

You should have known that

The butterfly in reverse here is me

Mary Anne, you're better than the world

They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl

I said Mary Anne, you're better than the world

They did a lot of things right on this girl

Where'd you wanna go to

With nothing beside you

But webbing and curfews and rain?

And everything that hurts you

Is locked up inside you

Like butterflies with wings

And other perfect things

We go swimming in the sunshine

Dangling from clotheslines

Separate and fall into me

And did you ever seen me?

Me absolutely?

Me, but all you, but still me?

Mary Anne, you're better than the world

They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl

I said Mary Anne, you're better than the world

They did a lot of things right on this girl
