Marilyn

©Francine Honey (SOCAN)

A picture on the doctor’s wall,

Blonde hair, sparkling blue eyes

Marilyn you were my idol, Now I know why

Troubled inside

To the world, you showed only grace

All curves and conviction, Lipstick on a smiling face

Chorus:

I need to be like you today,

Sittin’ here wondering what the doctor will say


I look alright on the outside,

I may not be fine.



Tell me I’m not dying on the inside

Pictures of all kinds of women,

Surround you there on the walls

Some with flat chests, some with no hair,

Proud to show it all
