Saddest girl she has to be
Salty tears stream down her cheek
Her heart's bigger than her body
Her name is Cry Baby

And in her picture perfect home
Momma's drunk while daddy moans
Her brother always comes home stoned
She watches in her room alone

She watches momma sip a drink
Out of a sippy cup that's pink
Because of that you'd never think
That she'd pass out under the sink

The carnival is where she fell
For the first time on the carousel
Round and round through the same hell
She never gets under his shell

She cried until she then could see
That he wasn't even worthy
Of all her love and abc's
So she spelt fuck you in 1,2,3

She met a new boy and filled with hope
She said too much and always chocked
So she washed her mouth out with soap
So that he wouldn't pull the rope

They rode their bikes so very slow
She wanted more as they got close
Unscrewed his training wheels to grow
Into a two wheel bicycle

Her birthday was around the bend
She invited him and all her friends
None of which did attend
Her happiness came to an end

A lonely girl so vulnerable
To her house she walks alone
The bad wolf ice-cream man had known
And took her to his awful home

She got locked up and made a plan
To kill the bad wolf ice-cream man
He ordered her to make him snacks
Her cookies and milk made him collapse

She escaped and was never the same
She swayed a boy who had been claimed
And pacified ol' what's her name
Not out of love, just played a game

One day she turned on the TV
Mrs. Potato on the screen
Showing off her surgeries
She thought that her pain meant beauty

Cry Baby sat and disagreed
Imperfect, insane, and emotional was she
But she feels safe, going to sleep
And there's no one else that she'd rather be
