Marilyn

[Verse 1]
First man on the scene
Frozen in a dream
I see cold and timeless magic
Growing old could be more tragic
We live fast, we gonna do some damage
Make it last, use our looks to our advantage

[Chorus]
Marilyn why'd you die young?
Were you running?
Were the rumors true?
Marilyn why'd you die young?
Was it pressure?
Was it cutting through?
Marilyn what you know girl?
What's the secret? that you can't reveal
Marilyn why'd you go girl?
Were you feeling the way i feel?

[Verse 2]
Pennies, nickels, dimes
Buying us more time
He'll never understand just why his compliments can make me cry
We live fast we gonna do some damage
Make it last use our looks to our advantage

[Chorus]
Marilyn why'd you die young?
Were you running?
Were the rumors true?
Marilyn why'd you die young?
Was it pressure?
Was it cutting through?
Marilyn what you know girl?
What's the secret? that you can't reveal
Marilyn why'd you go girl?
Were you feeling the way i feel?

[Verse 3]
21, loaded gun, shoot to kill, aim to miss
Petrified of my life, without your love, without your kiss
22 doesn't sound quite as nice as 21
What to do with the cake, candles, and a loaded gun

[Bridge]
Tell me why you died young, tell me why you died young
Tell me why you died young marilyn

[Chorus]
Marilyn why'd you die young?
Were you running?
Were the rumors true?
Marilyn why'd you die young?
Was it pressure?
Was it cutting through?
Marilyn what you know girl?
What's the secret? that you can't reveal
Marilyn why'd you go girl?
Were you feeling the way i feel?
