Silly, silly girl,
Why won’t you eat?
Silly, silly girl,
A world of weights isn’t much of a treat.

Silly girl,
At the moon you sigh.
Oh silly little girl,
Don’t let that be your last goodbye.

Silly little girl,
Pills aren’t much of a meal.
Silly little girl,
Killing yourself won’t make it less of a deal.

Silly little girl,
Why do you cry?
Oh so silly little girl,
It is not your time to fly…
