She was so pretty, everyone said
|
The more so the pity
|
That she was found dead
|
And now the flag only flies at fifty percent
|
In the school yard where she once went
|
Push 'em back, push 'em back
|
Way back, way back
|
B-E A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E
|
|
And the death of a cheerleader
|
Take me by surprise
|
How the death of a cheerleader
|
Can open eyes
|
|
Yellow carnations and roses galore
|
Were sent to the mother and
|
Placed by the door
|
And in the spot where her daughter had
|
Taken her life
|
Was a sweet sixteen photo
|
On homecoming night
|
Push 'em back, push 'em back
|
Way back, way back
|
B-E A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E
|
|
And the death of a cheerleader
|
Takes me by surprise
|
How the death of a cheerleader
|
Can open eyes
|
And it's sad that she had to die
|
To open eyes
|
|
Nobody doubted her future was vast
|
Nobody noticed she grew up so fast
|
It's a shame that her future's a thing of the past
|
Tomorrow's the funeral you know
|
L-E-T-S-G-O
