Alice D. Millionaire Lyrics

You say you′re livin' in a world of trouble
All your schemes have all popped like a bubble
Your mother told your sister and your brother told your friend
Now your secret′s out and you don't have to pretend
You can see for yourself, it's really not the end

You′re standing there with tears in your eyes
There′s too much going on right now
There's no time to cry

You say the walls are closing in on you, child
All your friends have-a put you in exile
Bad luck seems to follow you all around the world
Can′t seem to find no peace of mind, girl
You won't take a chance, you seem so blind

You′re standing there with tears in your eyes
There's too much going on right now
No time to cry

Every minute is a brand new day
And there′s some games that are just fun to play
Even bad scenes are for real, there's no time to cry
Since you left your old scene behind you
Go ahead and let the green light find you
It's warm and friendly, girl, and it won′t blind you
Come out in the street and the weeds won′t grind you
See the love that's in the air, you feel it all around you

Standing there with tears in your eyes
There′s too much going on right now
No time to cry

Your yesterdays are all left behind
There's a brand new light in your mind
You don′t need a key to define
What's written on the magic sign
There′s no time to cry
When the season of the magic lantern
Has transformed into a funny pattern
The wheel of fortune has a flat tire
You can't seem to get any higher
When you go out for the bay, you shouldn't have brought a horseshoe

You′re standing there with tears in your eyes
There′s too much going on right now
No time to cry
