Lyrics
0:09Emily shrugs and drags her heels
0:11As she takes the guided tour
0:14It seemed like such an amazing deal
0:17When she was looking at the brochure
0:20Stuck on a bus with strangers
0:23Wishing she could be at home
0:25With me poor little Emily
0:28How does it feel to be free
0:35Lyin' in bed the pain in my head
0:37From running around all day
0:40Tryin' to find what was rightfully mine
0:42But I ran out of things to say
0:46Runnin' around with strangers
0:48Wishing she could run away with me
0:52Poor little Emily
0:54How does it feel to be free
0:56From familiar fingertips
0:58To a persecuted grip
1:01From the pan into the fire
1:04Now a thread becomes a wire
1:07Under which you must crawl
1:09Through a ditch and over the wall
1:25Emily works her fingers
1:27Right down to her aching bones
1:30While my aching head's got me stuck
1:32In bed working on being alone
1:36Working around the clock
1:38Wishing she had worked it out with me
1:42Poor little Emily
1:43How does it feel to be free
1:46Poor little Emily
1:48How does it feel to be free
1:50Poor little Emily
1:51How does it feel to be free
Emily shrugs and drags her heels As she takes the guided tour It seemed like such an amazing deal When she was looking at the brochure Stuck on a bus with strangers Wishing she could be at home With me poor little Emily How does it feel to be free Lyin' in bed the pain in my head From running around all day Tryin' to find what was rightfully mine But I ran out of things to say Runnin' around with strangers Wishing she could run away with me Poor little Emily How does it feel to be free From familiar fingertips To a persecuted grip From the pan into the fire Now a thread becomes a wire Under which you must crawl Through a ditch and over the wall Emily works her fingers Right down to her aching bones While my aching head's got me stuck In bed working on being alone Working around the clock Wishing she had worked it out with me Poor little Emily How does it feel to be free Poor little Emily How does it feel to be free Poor little Emily How does it feel to be free
