Story Board

I know where my role is in this game you play
you have set it up for me
I role where my role is
but that doesn't mean i like it
you have placed me here
I am your pawn
and you are my queen
when you tell me what to do
I'd better do it
or I'll be thrown off the board

But I'm bored with this game of strategy
and I'd rather play Monopoly 
or make my way through Life
than play this fucking game of chess anymore

So I throw my clothes in my own chest
and that's where I put my cards
because you are not my queen anymore... or banker... or dealer
your just another mother
siting on her thrown
but I play my own game now
I role my own dice

singing and dancing my life away

when a song gets in my head
I sing it and dance it
try to spit it
back out again
so I can move on

when that song stays
I sing it and dance it
and pass it along
hoping it'll leave me
to find a new
person to latch on to

when a song gets in my head
I sing it and dance it
fall in love with it
roll around in it
listening for hours
replaying it wherever I go
And I sing and dance my life away
With that song
till it leaves and I have found a new one
