Happy Birthday you're 18
The only thing that means is you're old enough to strip
Still to young to have a grip

On the high cost of each dollar
The impact of our father
Every shitty guy you'll date
Every piss poor decision you'll make

She's taken al her notes in pencil
Intend to contradict themselves, and half of what they say
She's learning that rules can bend this way
They say you can measure a man, by the way he stands
Cause you kick those heels up baby and still walk tall

She's staying up, she's working hard for her money tonight(hard for her money tonight)
She's learning all that life can give and take away
She's staying up, she's working hard for her money tonight(hard for her money tonight)
She's learning all that life can give and take away

Pretty miss Mary, Mary quite contrary won't stay this pretty forever,
Because miss Mary, Mary things will get hairy,
Drug habits make it hard to keep a body together.
