There is a little girl that I am madly in love with She's only 17, and she's testing my patience She knows what I want, and I know what she needs We both know that we should not proceed Father, please forgive me for I've sinned again And again, and again And again, and again And again She's a victim of the times Daddy's tryin' to find, a way to keep his baby in line He's got it all figured out, keep her locked in the house Then she won't see or hear no evil Don't you know the more you push, the more she runs? Run away, run away Run away, run away Run away These are the fairy tales that don't have happy endings These are the fairy tales that never, ever, ever, end These are the fairy tales that don't have happy endings These are the fairy tales that never, ever, ever, end I promised her the world and she ate every word She left her life in a sudden urge She came along for the ride, now she's lost, she starts to cry The big fat wolf is at her door Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest motherfucker of all? It ain't me, it ain't me It ain't me, it ain't me It ain't me (There's no going back now, it's way too late) (Her innocence is lost now nothing remains) These are the fairy tales that don't have happy endings These are the fairy tales that never, ever, ever, end These are the fairy tales that don't have happy endings These are the fairy tales that never, ever, ever, end These are the fairy tales that don't have happy endings These are the fairy tales that never, ever, ever, end These are the fairy tales that don't have happy endings These are the fairy tales that never, ever, ever, end
