Lyrics:
When I was seventeen
I thought everything
Would start to float up to the sky
Ships and boats, the railway line
Would wind between the clouds
With bad men screaming out
That they couldn't get down
Tell me, I'll believe it
I was a piece of clay
That you both carved into a girl
Your fears under the spotlight
As your fingers moulded mine
When I look down at my hands
I can still see myself
Before I asked for help
Ooooh Marlene
It got better better better better
Ooooh Marlene
It wasn't the life for me
You can have my number
But I won't take the call
I'll dip my toe in just a little
Flirt with fire as it dwindles
My feet mingle with the waves
Let the water meet my knees
I would rather work with sand then clay
There's some things you can't reshape and
Ooooh Marlene
It got better better better better
Ooooh Marlene
It wasn't the life for me
I like working at a grocery store
Cause the stakes are low
I write with a grey-led pencil
Tuck my hair in after seven
A quarter tab of LSD
I don't wanna climb that family tree
No that's not the life for me
Ooooh Marlene
It got better better better better
Ooooh Marlene
It wasn't the life for me
