Open out onto the stageThe smalltown star tonightFlexes out for
fame and fortuneInto the lightThe way she tears into the
heartMakes me realiseThat i never understood hatredTill i looked
into those eyes - she criesNo one's going to talk down to me
againNo,no one's ever going to patronise me againI'm
going to get out of this townSteal myself a crownI'm going
to get myself some powerIf it's the last thing that i
do.Heading out of bradfordWith a ticket on the trainAnd a faith
as hard as steelAnd sharp as any painGets pictures in the
papersSmiling oh so goodWhile she lies in bed with racing
dreamsHot as bloodCos love will make you happyYeah, love will
keep you warmAnd love can build a cushionTo keep you safe from
harmBut hate will drive you onwardsYeah, hate will drive you
upwardsTill you get back all the bastardsWhoever tried,oh how
they tried - to put you down.And when she's gone
foreverPlease don't lay her down to restIn a quiet little
churchyardAlong with all the restThrow a great big partyTo
remember that she livedGive her headlines on the tvTo remember
who she isCos no one's ever going toTalk down to her
againNo,no one's ever going to patronise her
againShe's going to get out of this townSteal herself a
crownShe's going to get herself some powerIf it's the
last thingThe last thing that she doesIf it's the one thing
that she doesIf it's the only thing..that she ever does.
