DEBUTANTE BLUES
She’s got a new ball gown and dancing shoesI know she’s also got the year- end bluesNo question why does she dress up at allLike her peers, it is her debutante ballBut she don’t have her school anymore
Never mind, she’ll come and watch yours
That once she belonged to is a true factAnd abused at the school is not an act
Her star shine has shed wasted light
Mercifully though she still shines brightTho’ she don’t have her school anymoreNever mind, she’s come to watch yoursShe now knows her suffering is universal
And that life is for real, not a rehearsal
Watch her dancing in the sky without shoesHer stardust dispels all year end blues
