From the recording Boo Boo Betty
Lyrics
Boo Boo Betty
Music and lyrics by Liz Nash
(Chorus)
Boo Boo Betty is blue
Boo Boo Betty is blue
Boo Boo Betty, Boo Boo Betty, Boo Boo Betty is blue
She sleepwalks through her day
She lives her life in a play
Watching actors from her room center stage
She paints her nails in red;
Wears orange pants with yellow thread.
One more TV show, that’s her day
(Bridge)
She wants to be an actor, a writer, a clothing designer
A blogger, a poet, a whiskey moonshiner
A model, a painter, a country top liner
But she’s so… Ohh
She gets up to fry an egg
Bribing herself with a book she read
She whispers… “Not today.”
She crawls back to bed
Piles blankets over her head
The weight of it all protects her from floating away
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
