Marianne

Oh-oh, Marianne, is that you
Are you the girl that I once knew
Oh-oh, somehow it seems so strange
I can't believe how much you've changed
Marianne

From twelve to five, you watch MTV
In search of someone you could be
So mesmerized you paint your face and hair
You even dream it's you up there
A slave to the fashion scene
But what does it really mean
When will you truly be

Marianne, Marianne
You've got to find out
What your life's about
Marianne, Marianne
When will you finally see
That you should be
Marianne

Oh-oh, Marianne, the Father weeps
'Cause He knows all that you could be
Don't let it go, oh, no, don't you hide
The hidden jewel he's placed inside
So many pictures and memories
That's the girl that I've long to see
Don't you really want to be

Marianne, Marianne
You've got to find out
What your life's about
Marianne, Marianne
When will you finally see
That you should be

Marianne, Marianne
You've got to find out
What your life's about
Marianne, Marianne
When will you finally see
That you should be
Marianne, Marianne
Marianne

Oh-oh, Marianne, is that you
