1:08Dreaming dreaming of a girl like me
1:14Hey what are you waiting for
1:16Feeding feeding me
1:20I feel like I'm disappearing
1:23Getting smaller every day
1:26But I look in the mirror
1:28I'm bigger in every way
1:31She said:
1:32You aren't never going anywhere
1:35You aren't never going anywhere
1:38I ain't never going anywhere
1:41I ain't never going anywhere
1:45I'm in heaven now I can see you Richard
1:49Goodbye Hollywood
1:51Goodbye downey hello Janis
1:54Hello Dennis
1:55Elvis and all my brand new friends
1:59I'm so glad you're all here with me
2:04Until the very end
2:32Dreaming dreaming of how it's supposed to be
2:38But now this tunic's spinning
2:40Around my arms and knees
2:44I feel like I'm disappearing
2:46Getting smaller every day
2:50But when I open my mouth to sing
2:53I'm bigger in every way
2:55She said:
2:56You aren't never going anywhere
2:59You aren't never going anywhere
3:02I ain't never going anywhere
3:05I ain't never going anywhere
3:08Hey mom look I'm up here I finally made it
3:13I'm playing the drums again too
3:16Don't be sad the band doesn't sound half bad
3:20And I remember mom what you said
3:24You said honey you look so under fed
4:43Another green salad another ice tea
4:49There's a tunic in the closet waiting just for me
4:55I feel like I'm disappearing
4:57Getting smaller every day
5:00But I look in your eyes
5:03And I'm bigger in every way
5:06She said:
5:07You aren't never going anywhere
5:10You aren't never going anywhere
5:13I ain't never going anywhere
5:16I ain't never going anywhere
5:19Goodbye Richard gotta go now
5:22I'm finally on my own but Dan's got a gig
5:27Keep the love lights glowing
5:30Little girl's got the blues
5:34I can still hear momma say:
5:36"honey don't let it go to your head"
Dreaming  dreaming of a girl like me
Hey what are you waiting for
Feeding  feeding me
I feel like I'm disappearing
Getting smaller every day
But I look in the mirror
I'm bigger in every way
She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I'm in heaven now   I can see you Richard
Goodbye Hollywood
Goodbye downey   hello Janis
Hello Dennis
Elvis   and all my brand new friends
I'm so glad you're all here with me
Until the very end
Dreaming  dreaming of how it's supposed to be
But now this tunic's spinning
Around my arms and knees
I feel like I'm disappearing
Getting smaller every day
But when I open my mouth to sing
I'm bigger in every way
She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
Hey mom  look I'm up here   I finally made it
I'm playing the drums again too
Don't be sad   the band doesn't sound half bad
And I remember mom  what you said
You said honey   you look so under fed
Another green salad  another ice tea
There's a tunic in the closet waiting just for me
I feel like I'm disappearing
Getting smaller every day
But I look in your eyes
And I'm bigger in every way
She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
Goodbye Richard   gotta go now
I'm finally on my own   but Dan's got a gig
Keep the love lights glowing
Little girl's got the blues
I can still hear momma say:
"honey don't let it go to your head"
