about

A song about a girl out west and her struggle for survival.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Genie has no wish
Genie has no dream
She just sits in her chair all day
Waits for the sun to come play
Light is her only friend
In a life filled with abuse and pain
Her father bounds up the stairs
Pounds on her door, keeps her in chains
Her mother and brother cannot help
Poor girl in her four-walled world
Genie is only thirteen
So little has she seen

Verse 2:
Genie has no love
Genie has no hate
The sun slips in to bathe her hair
The window's cracked, her room lies bare
Oh poor Genie
She walks around in her little rabbit pose
The good people at the hospital
They cannot ignore a poor girl's woes
So they take Genie away
And place her in a little seaside villa
She never learned to speak or write
But if she did, her diary would be so full of life

Outro:
Genie has no wish
Genie has no dream
She just sits in her chair all day
Waits for the sun to come play

No stage is safe when King Dice is in action. ... more
