Oh if you stare elsewhere
I'll change the colour of my hair
Wear something that makes me pretty
Anything for you to see me
I'm a sellout
To my kin
I'm an alien
Living in some other skin
Oh I'm so naive
I am stardust
But I am weak
Oh I am a magpie
Threads of silver in your hair
I will hide them in my lair
Oh as it grows inside
I'll write a song that makes you mine
It's not perfect though I tried
I can hope it makes you cry
This is baseless
And it's crass
Take each line I sing
To mean nothing more than that
Oh I'm so naive
I am stardust
But I am weak
Oh I am a magpie
Threads of silver in your hair
I will hide them in my lair
No I never
Meant to hate her
Though I think
She hated me first
Oh salute me
I am oh so
Unlucky
Oh cry on my back
I will drink the salt
From your tear tracks
Cut my wrists
Cause you know
I'll thank you for this
Oh I'm so naive
I am stardust
But I am weak
Oh I am a magpie
Threads of silver in your hair
I will hide them in my lair
