Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water so they say
Their subsequent fall was inevitable
They never stood a chance they were written that way
Innocent victims of their story
Like Romeo and Juliet
T' was written in the stars before they even met
That love and fate and a touch of stupidity
Would rob them of their hope of living happily
The endings are often a little bit gory
I wonder why they didn't just change their story
We're told we have to do as we're told but surely
Sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty
Just because you find that life's not fair it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
Nothing will change
Even if you're little you can do a lot you
Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you
If you sit around and let them get on top you
Might as well be saying
You think that it's ok
And that's not right
And if it's not right
You have to put it right
(speaking part)
Cinderella in the cellar
Didn't have to do much as far as I can tell
Her Godmother was two thirds fairy
Suddenly her lot was a lot less scary
But what if you haven't got a fairy to fix it
Sometimes you have to make a little bit of mischief
Just because you find that life's not fair it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
Nothing will change
Even if you're little you can do a lot you
Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you
If you sit around and let them get on top you
Might as well be saying
You think that it's ok
And that's not right
And if it's not right
You have to put it right

Platinum blonde hair dye extra strong
Keep out of reach of children
Hmmm
Oil of violet hair tonic for men
Yep

In the slip of a bolt there's a tiny revolt
The seeds of a war in the creak of a floorboard
A storm can begin with the flap of a wing
The tiniest mite packs the mightiest sting
Every day starts with the tick of a clock
All escapes starts with the click of a lock
If you're stuck in your story and want to get out
You don't have to cry you don't have to shout
'Cause if you're little you can do a lot you
Mustn't let a little thing like 'little' stop you
If you sit around and let them get on top you
Won't change a thing
Just because you find that life's not fair it
Doesn't mean that you just have to grin and bear it
If you always take it on the chin and wear it
You might as well be saying
You think that it's ok
And that's not right
And if it's not right
You have to put it right
But nobody else it gonna put it right for me
Nobody but me is going to change my story
Sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty
