who's the captain of the ship i think it's sinking

i know i know i don't know what i know what was i thinking



paper dolls

here for you folding

schools like malls

that are all closing

afraid to dance

don't talk to strangers

avoid romance

read what the sign says



parental guidance is advised

another one of us survives



blah, blah, blah, blah

feels so good to be alive

blah, blah, blah, blah

my life was easier at five

blah, blah, blah, blah

feels so good to be alive

blah, blah, blah, blah

as for me i will get by

what was i thinking



i can't make up my own mind

can't even make my bed

yeah i should clean up my act

but first i'll clean up my head

i'm lacking confidence

i don't apply myself

be sure check up on me

to check yourself



'cause we're paper dolls

here for you folding

schools like malls

that are all closing

afraid to dance

don't talk to strangers

avoid romance
