Idol Lyrics by Emma McGann

B.R.A.V.E.

2017

(You used to be my, my)
(You used to be my)
You used to be my idol
God, I used to worship you
You used to be my idol
The reason for the dumb things that I do
Used to be my idol, yeah
Used to wear my hair just like you do
Used to be my idol
But I look so much better in your shoes
Wore your colours, flew your flag
You took my time and now I want it back, yeah
I'll wrestle you down to the mat
Cause I don't need you now and
Because I simply can
You're no good for no-one
Just because you went blonde
Don't mean you're more fun
Your river running dry
My cup runneth over like
Dum diddy dum dum
You used to be my idol
God, I used to worship you
You used to be my idol
The reason for the dumb things that I do
Used to be my idol, yeah
Used to wear my hair just like you do
Used to be my idol
But I look so much better in your shoes
You the hero, you the saint
You can do no wrong and
You always get your way
Now a villain, not in vain
I burned your statue down and
I'd do it all again
You're no good for no-one
Just because you went blonde
Don't mean you're more fun
Your river running dry
My cup runneth over like
Dum diddy dum dum
You used to be my idol (yeah)
God, I used to worship you
You used to be my idol (yeah)
The reason for the dumb things that I do
Used to be my idol, yeah
Used to wear my hair just like you do
Used to be my idol
But I look so much better in your shoes
(You used to be my, my)
(You used to be my)
(You used to be my, my, my)
(You used to be my)
Idol, idol, yeah
(You used to be my, my)
(You used to be my)
Idol, idol, yeah
(You used to be my, my, my)
You used to be my idol
God I used to worship you
You used to be my idol
The reason for the dumb things that I do
Used to be my idol, yeah
Used to wear my hair just like you do
Used to be my idol
But I look so much better in your shoes
(My, my, my, my)
