The smell of suntan cream reminds me of You smiling, sadly, back at me As I sat there in my bubble Stacking pebbles up on a sunny day I still remember when I was young I thought I would be young forever I swim 'round and 'round on my tinfoil pond Like an ugly duckling that does not want To have to turn into a swan, yeah I still get excited when it snows Sitting in my bubble with my imaginary friends Wishing that we didn't have to be so realistic all the time I lie awake at night and count the stars I fill jelly-jars with plastic flowers I go 'round and 'round in circles on my hamster wheel I can feel the whole world Quietly closing in on me in my little bubble I still get excited when it snows Sitting in my bubble with my box of felt-tip pens Wishing that I didn't have to be so realistic all the time
