A Fairy Tale Lyrics by Papercuts

Mockingbird

2004

[Verse 1]
I know I was young at heart
I saw things you wouldn't believe
And I would crawl into the wall
There it was, I came undone
And everybody, now outside
I might have a great time now
But that was just a fairy tale
I knew then what I know now
[Refrain]
That what will be, will surely be
What will be, will surely be
Oh what will be, will surely be
What will be, will surely be
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
And every tiny wave that breaks
Would overflow into the streams
Don't blame the creature on his knees
We both have the same disease
Every part there now up a sleeve
And what will be, will surely be
[Refrain]
Oh what will be, will surely be
What will be, will surely be
[Instrumental Outro]
