[PAULA]

When I was a little girl

I felt like a princess

So naïve and full of hope

I thought my dreams would come true

But then as I grew

The world was all like...

(SHE giggles.) Nope

(spoken)

But this time, maybe, just maybe

(sung)

Maybe this dream wont lead to disgrace

Maybe this dream is in reach

Maybe this dream wont poop on my face

Like a seagull at the beach

Maybe this dream wont be like my wedding

The organ played, There goes the bride

(spoken)

I came back

(sung)

Maybe this dream wont be like some maggots

Feasting on the rotting deer carcass of my pride

(SHE vocalizes.)

[PAULA]

Maybe this dream wont be like my vibrator

Breaking when I need it most

Maybe this dream wont be like Ebola

Eating the flesh of its host

Maybe this dream

Wont be like

When I go running

And I have to take a dump

So I have to rush home

Plus I also have my period

So I have menstrual cramps plus dump cramps

And as I run frantically

I pee just a little

Because Ive had two babies

So by the time I get home

My undies smell like a sewer rat

Maybe this dream wont be like that

Maybe this dream will finally make me feel

Like I deserve

A dream
