Lady Elena

lyrics

well, did you ever know Lady Elena?
no, you didnt, but i bet you wish you had, huh?
she was necessary as a dictionary, and she
spoke so nicely.

but she only looked pretty when she smiled,
it brought out her big green eyes.
so we all used to tell her little jokes,
we were so lively.

but hearts aren't made of skin,
they still let every other substance in,
and though hearts aren't made of bone,
they can break just as easily when left alone,
when left alone.

oh, navy polkadotted dress
in the front left window at Bette's
Elena saved up and bought,
the perfect fit, it was fate.

but a funny thing happened that June
at the first party she ever wore it to,
we all jumped right in the backyard pool
with our clothes on and she
didn't even hesitate.

and though hearts aren't made of skin
they still let every other substance in,
and though hearts aren't made of bone
they can break just as easily when left alone
when left alone, when left alone
when left alone, when left alone
when left alone.
