Plain Jane Lyrics

Each girl when they're born

Or when they choose to start

They're given some paper

In place of their heart

And they practice their folding and sculpting techniques

To give the best view of their valleys and peaks

Plain Jane, the paper crane

Simple driving me insane

Folding back your work of art

You always had it from the start

One, two, three

So Jane

Please don't run away

Your friends and all your family

Will love you just the same

Just cry

Don't hold it all inside

I promise if you tell the truth

You'll never have to hide

And it's ok dear

To live inside this place

That you're afraid here

And you'll get through it love

And you'll replace the parts you feel are not enough

And then one day, they'll say

Whatever happened to Plain Jane

So call off the search party

I found the body

She's in the mirror

And she's trying to haunt me

I thought that I killed her a long time ago

But she's in the mirror

Whispering 'I know

I know about the valley

The mountain

The peak

The crimp

The petal

The sink

You've got heart

You've got time

You've got so much left to say that's on your mind

So don't go

And just stay

I promise no one wants it like that anyway

So Jane

Please don't run away

Your friends and all your family

Will love you just the same

Just cry

Don't hold it all inside

I promise if you tell the truth

You'll never have to hide

And it's ok dear

To live inside this place

That you're afraid here

And you'll get through it love

And you'll replace the parts you feel are not enough

And then one day, they'll say

Whatever happened to Plain Jane
