You think you’re special
Think you’re different
think you’re one of a kind
One in a million
They say you’re brilliant
You feeling precious
Individual
And entitled to all
Shaped by Pygmalion
Fantasy alien
Love in mind He carved your flesh from stone
Now alive a queen upon his throne
That’s the story you were told
Because you’re so ordinary
Ordinary
You start to question
Start to wonder
If the stories you’re told
One in a million
In his dominion
Shot down
Why resist it, why reject the perfect life
You are sold
The backs of billions
For your convenience
Love in mind He carved your flesh from stone
Now alive a queen upon his throne
That’s the story you were told
Because you’re so ordinary
Ordinary
“ Pygmalion off'ring, first approach'd the shrine,
And then with pray'rs implor'd the Pow'rs divine:
Almighty Gods, if all we mortals want,
If all we can require, be yours to grant;
Make this fair statue mine, he wou'd have said,
But chang'd his words for shame; and only pray'd,
Give me the likeness of my iv'ry maid.”
