Platform Dreams

(to Dreams)
by Carolyn

Now here I go again,

I say I want some platforms.

Who are you to keep me down?

It's only height I want to

have to my advantage

so i'll walk carefully

and look down

in some platform boots

You're so tall

it drives me mad

My shortness is so maddening

It makes me mad

that I'm not tall

It makes me mad

that I'm not tall

Oh I wonder what I have

to make me taller

standing on the stage

makes me seem smaller

they say women... who aren't tall

will never grow

but you've never seen me wear

platforms before.

Now here I go again,

I see some 10 inch platforms.

I keep my platforms to myself.

It's only me

who wants to have some platform dreams, and...

have you any boots you'd like to sell,

to help my shortness?

You're so tall

It drives me mad

my shortness is so maddening

It makes me mad

that I'm not tall

It makes me mad

that I'm not tall

Oh I wonder what I have

to make me taller

standing on the stage

makes me seem smaller

they say women... who aren't tall

will never grow

but you've never seen me wear

platforms before.
