OH, THE CRYSTAL CHANDELIERS LIGHT UP THE PAINTINGS ON YOUR WALL'S

THE MARBLE STATUETTES ARE STANDING STATELY IN THE HALL

BUT WILL THE TIMELY CROWD THAT HAS YOU LAUGHING LOUD

HELP YOU DRY YOUR TEARS WHEN THE NEW WEARS OFF OF YOUR CRYSTAL CHANDELIERS



I NEVER DID FIT IN TO WELL WITH THE FOLKS YOU KNEW

AND ITS PLAIN TO SEE THAT THE LIKES OF ME DON'T FIT WITH YOU

SO YOU TRADED ME FOR THE GAIETY OF WELL TO DO

AND YOU TURNED AWAY FROM THE LOVE I OFFERED YOU



==REPEAT CHORUS==



I SEE YOUR PICTURE IN THE NEWS MOST EVERY DAY

YOU'RE THE CHOSEN GIRL OF THE SOCIAL WORLD, SO THE STORIES SAY

BUT A PAPER SMILE ONLY LASTS A WHILE THEN IT FADES AWAY

AND THE LOVE WE KNEW WILL COME HOME TO YOU SOMEDAY



==REPEAT CHORUS==
