Sophie

Sophie cannot finish her dinner
She says sheў‚¬"ўs eaten enough
Sophieў‚¬"ўs trying to make herself thinner
Says sheў‚¬"ўs eating too much
And her brother says, «Youў‚¬"ўre joking,»
And her motherў‚¬"ўs heart is broken
Sophie has a hard time coping
And, besides, Sophieў‚¬"ўs hoping
She can be like all the other girls
Be just like all the other girls
Living in an ordinary world
Just to fit in, in the ordinary world
Just to fit in like an ordinary girl.

Sophieў‚¬"ўs losing weight by the minute
How did things get this bad?
Sophieў‚¬"ўs family, they donў‚¬"ўt understand it
Gave her all that they had
And her sister wonў‚¬"ўt stop crying
'Cause her father says sheў‚¬"ўs dying
Sophie says sheў‚¬"ўs really trying
Problem is, Sophieў‚¬"ўs lying.
She can be like all the other girls
Be just like all the other girls
Living in an ordinary world
Just to fit in, to the ordinary world
Just to fit in like an ordinary girl
How did she get this way?
How did she get this way?
Through trying to hide it.
What does it take to say,
What does it take to say
Sheў‚¬"ўs dying, Sophieў‚¬"ўs dying to ў‚¬¦
…be like all the other girls
Be just like all the other girls
Living in an ordinary world
Just to fit in, to the ordinary world
Just to fit in and be like all the other girls
Be just like all the other girls
Living in an ordinary world
Just to fit in, to the ordinary world
Just to fit in like an ordinary girl.
