Marie, The Ugliest of Them All

Look at you Thinking you're better than me But you're not, you never were, and you never will be Marie, step back, don't invade my space That fade blonde crown won't win this race Terrifying eyes like a haunted doll Your soul so empty there's nothing at all Ten years trapped in a nursery rhyme Now you think you can teach like you're divine But your lessons fall flat, your mind stays closed Creativity dies wherever you go You talk too loud, but you say too little Your world is small, your mind is brittle Preaching wisdom you don't own A queen of dust on a paper throne Marie, Marie, you're the ugliest of them all Not your face, no, your spirit's the flaw Dragging us down, holding us back But I refuse to follow your track Marie, Marie, did you even see? Your students are stuck you, and that's on you, not me No growth, no change, no spark, no light Just another lost soul, swallowed by night I wrote this song to make people dance Thinking of you as they stomp and prance Every beat, every step, crushing your bones Turning your name into echoing moans You stand so tall, but it's all for show A house of cards and a deadly blow Thin as a feather, weak inside Hiding behind that hollow pride You talk too loud, but you say too little Your world is small, your mind is brittle Preaching wisdom you don't own A queen of dust on a paper throne Et maintenant, je te le dis même en français Parce qu'au final je ne sais même pas Si Marie, comme tu le prononces, t'appartient vraiment Tu es une hypocrite, je le sais Tu joues un rôle, tu fais semblant Toujours la même, jamais brillante Toujours critique, jamais créative Regarde-toi toujours là Mais sans raison, sans éclat Tu crois tout savoir, mais tu ne fais que blesser Marie, tu ne seras jamais respectée Marie, Marie, you're the ugliest of them all Not your face, no, your spirit's the flaw I'm rising up, I'm breaking free You'll never ever be better than me Marie, Marie, take a look inside There's nothing left but your foolish pride Thin as a feather, weak inside, now I'm free No need to hide Goodbye Marie, you never mattered anyway
