There was a girl called Mare
I fell for her laughter
The way she made people stare
Would set the house on fire
She hailed the voices in her head

Marylin rocks the boat
Her father’s gone he left her
She knows in her heart and soul
He wasn’t kind or loved her
Some days she just wants to play

Marylin is high and dry
Humming to a silent cry
She loves the rain on a stormy night
Checks her heart if the beat is right
She hums to ease the pain

Marylin’s at the fair
She looks around in wonder
Buys candy floss to share
Walks through the house of horror
Inhales her hopes and happiness

Marylin’s life was short
She couldn’t stand the weather
Riding out of the storm
Until at last it took her
Away she longs for better days

Marylin is high and dry
Humming to a silent cry
She loves the rain on a stormy night
Checks her heart if the beat is right
She hums to ease the pain

(ma ma ma)
White coats in the drive
Marylin is high
Up there in the sky
She flies

Marylin is high and dry
Humming to a silent cry
She loves the rain on a stormy night
Checks her heart if the beat is right
She hums to ease the pain
