[00:05.39]Daddy always thought that he married beneath him
[00:07.77]That's what he said  that's what he said
[00:10.32]When he proposed he informed my mother
[00:13.01]He was probably her very last chance
[00:16.42]And though she was twenty-two
[00:19.04]Though she was twenty-two
[00:21.53]Though she was twenty-two
[00:26.78]She married him
[00:31.08]Life with my dad wasn't ever a picnic
[00:33.39]More like a "Come as you are "
[00:35.95]When I was five I remember my mother
[00:38.57]Dug earrings out of the car
[00:41.06]I knew they weren't hers  But it wasn't
[00:43.73]Something you'd want to discuss

[01:28.31]Up a steep and very narrow stairway
[01:31.93]To the voice like a metronome
[01:35.67]Up a steep and very narrow stairway
[01:39.42]It wasn't paradise

[01:45.47]But it was home
[01:49.59]Mother always said I'd be very attractive
[01:52.09]When I grew up  when I grew up
[01:54.64]"Diff'rent " she said  "With a special something
[01:56.99]And a very  very personal flair "
[02:01.04]And though I was eight or nine
[02:03.16]Though I was eight or nine
[02:05.35]Though I was eight or nine
[02:09.78]I hated her
[02:13.83]Now
[02:14.14]"Diff'rent" is nice  but it sure isn't pretty
[02:16.65]"Pretty" is what it's about
[02:18.95]I never met anyone who was "diff'rent"
[02:21.38]Who couldn't figure that out
[02:23.63]So beautiful I'd never lived to see
[02:30.23]But it was clear
[02:32.60]If not to her
[02:35.47]Well  then    to me
[02:38.42]That

[02:59.77]I was pretty
[03:02.30]At the ballet
[03:08.81]I was born to save their marriage
[03:11.90]But when my father came to pick my mother up
[03:14.64]At the hospital
[03:15.89]He said  "Well  I thought this was going to help
[03:18.84]But I guess  not   "
[03:22.67]A few months later he left and never came back
[03:28.37]Anyway  I had this   fantastic fantasy life
[03:32.99]I used to dance around the living room
[03:34.86]With my arms up like this
[03:37.42]My fantasy was that I was an Indian Chief
[03:42.10]And he'd say to me
[03:44.47]"Maggie  do you wanna dance "
[03:47.85]And I'd say  "Daddy  I would love to dance "
[03:54.40]Doo-doo-doo-doo
[03:55.78]But it was clear
[03:56.96]Doo-doo-doo
[03:57.64]When he proposed
[03:58.58]Doo-doo-doo
[03:59.71]That I was born to help their marriage and when
[04:03.51]Doo-doo-doo-doo
[04:04.01]That's what he said
[04:05.01]Doo-doo-doo
[04:05.38]That's what she said
[04:06.50]Doo-doo-doo
[04:06.70]I used to dance around the living room
[04:09.94]Doo-doo-doo-doo
[04:10.87]He wasn't warm
[04:12.18]Doo-doo-doo
[04:12.74]Not to her
[04:14.94]It was an Indian chief and he'd say:
[04:17.83]"Maggie  do you wanna dance "
[04:21.14]And I'd say  "Daddy  I would love to   "
