Happy Annie
Happy Annie wakes up scared
It's such a big day, she's unprepared
She's wanted this since she was a girl
More than anything in the whole wide world
Go get your mom's white wedding dress
And play bride with the family pets
In her bedroom bells were ringing oh she
Imagined everyone singing

But she never thought it's this way
Cause she loved
She loved
She loved - she loved him

Look how she loves

Wake up Tommy - do you feel the pain that
You got inside
Find your mommy
Spread her legs and crawl back up inside
Boys who trap animals are animals themselves
So wake up Tommy
Don't you know that you're gonna burn in Hell

But he never thought it's this way
Cause he loved
He loved
He loved - he loved her
Love love love

And this is truth
Try to find some youth
Which it all go bye

People for sale
Sell yourselves, visually
So comfortable being a slave
Beautiful people

Happy Annie so much pain
She can't break free from the chain
She's thinking bout what she never did
She want adventure but she love her kids
Love with her man has slowly died
Don't talk about it she prefers to lie
In her bedroom bells were ringing
Oh she imagined everying singing
La-la-lalalalala

Wake up Tommy
Can you feel the pain that you caused inside
Look at mommy as she finds
A place for her love to hide
Boys who trap animals are animals themselves
So set her free man
You will see dad - you'll be free as well
But they never thought it's this way
Cause they loved
They loved
They loved - were lovers
No they never thought it's this way
Cause they loved
They loved
Were lovers
