The Tale Of Opal Dawn Lyrics

To tell the tale of Opal Dawn would be a little hard.
She went to find America, but in the end she didn't get too far.
And if we're crazy she must have been insane!
Because the stuff we're made of? She never grew. She nearly flew away.
She lost her little heart while traveling the boulevard.
And all we can say now that she's really gone...

Tell The Tale of Opal Dawn: the missionary martyr!
She wasn't Opal very long - so spread the news about her!
Put her on your poster,
Adulate and boast her!
And though you may be toast girl...
Opal Dawn, keep your ruby slippers on,
They might send you home.

She went to feed the hungry and change the neighborhood. But couldn't face reality. Her enemy was never understood.
'Cause when you're saving a people you can't abide -
Interminably craving society to let us all inside -
You're gonna figure out what lies within is not without.
And love's not a drug that everyone's counting on.
And that's why we...

Tell The Tale of Opal Dawn, who thought to make a difference!
She fought to help us carry on the little lives we're living!
Looking for the reasons, trying to change the Seasons...
But nothing's ever easy.
Opal Dawn, keep your ruby slippers on.
They might send you home.
