Lyrics

She lay in bed all night watching the colors change She lay in bed all night watching the morning change She lay in bed all night watching the morning change Into green and gold The doctor told her years ago that she was ill The doctor told her years ago to take a pill The doctor told her years ago that she'd go blind If she wasn't careful They let Lisa go blind The world was at her feet And she was looking down They let Lisa go blind And everyone she knew Thought she was beautiful Only slightly mental Beautiful, only temperamental Beautiful, only slightly mental Beautiful She thought it would be fun to try photography She thought it would be fun to try pornography She thought it would be fun to try most anything She was tired of sleeping They let Lisa go blind Let Lisa go blind, let Lisa go blind They let Lisa go blind She's looking like a queen But if you knew what's going on in her life There'd be a thousand barren mothers There to talk to her If you knew what's going on in her life There'd be two hundred troubled Teenagers to sit with her and talk to her If you knew what's going on in her life What's going on in her life There would be a documentary on Radio 4 She made herself a pair of orthopedic shoes She thought it was an answer to the fashion blues She thought it was an answer to the fashion blues But she walked with a limp They let Lisa go blind Let Lisa go blind, let Lisa go blind They let Lisa go blind Let Lisa go blind, let Lisa go blind They let Lisa go blind Let Lisa go blind, let Lisa go blind They let Lisa go blind Let Lisa go blind, let Lisa go blind They let Lisa go blind She's looking like a queen You know she is beautiful Only slightly mental Beautiful, only temperamental
