So Dramatic - Crowded House

You turned eleven in '79

In plain dark paper, the present arrived

Out of costume and makeup inside

Oh, you’re so dramatic

But is it wise

To underline your eyes?

The main attraction, a star on your door

You’re called to action and blood on the floor

You crave attention like never before

Oh, you’re so dramatic

But is it wise

To underline your eyes?

They close behind you a shadow of doubt

A crowd of people that follow you about

Oh, you’re so dramatic

But is it wise

To underline your eyes?

And truth is so run down

Can hardly raise it’s head

But slowly dies

And if you want to make it right

Aah, aah, aah

Oh, you’re so dramatic

But is it wise

To underline your eyes?

And if you want to take the prize

You’ll have to make a sacrifice

If you are like all the rest

A victim of your own success
