Rosebud

[Intro]
Rosebud...

[Verse 1]
Oh pretty baby, you look helpless
There is beauty in pain
Help is coming, so don't you worry
Don't even try to explain

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The sirens blaring, the look of panic
These are the signs of a dream
Cry, pretty baby, you'll feel better
I'm trying hard not to scream

[Chorus]
What will your mother say?
What will your father say?
What will the angels say?
As they hide in disgrace from your beautiful face

[Verse 2]
Hush, my darling, there's tomorrow
We'll be laughing again
I'll buy a camera, we'll take vacations
Try not to move if you can

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Without a warning, without a reason
There wasn't even a scream
Don't call it tragic, that gives it meaning
I'm trying hard not to scream

[Chorus]
What will your mother say?
What will your father say?
What will the angels say?
As they hide in disgrace from your beautiful face
What will your mother say?
What will your father say?
What will the angels say?
As they hide in disgrace from your beautiful face

[Interlude]
Rosebud...

[Verse 3]
A tiny diamond lies out on Main Street
That's all that's left of our love
Without your loving, my life is nothing
How can I ever go on?

[Chorus]
What will your mother say?
What will your father say?
What will the angels say?
As they hide in disgrace from your beautiful face
What will your mother say?
What will your father say?
What will the angels say?
As they hide in disgrace from your beautiful face

[Spoken Word]
In a movie, a life can be summed up in a word
It's a useful dramatic device
In the real world with real flesh and real blood
One word is never, ever enough
