Missy Higgins - Sugarcane

Baby Ballerina's hiding somewhere in the corner
Where the shadow wraps around her and our torches cannot find her
She will stay there till the morning
Crawl behind us as we are yawning
And she will leave our games to never be the same

So grow tall sugarcane
Eat that soil, drink the rain
But know they'll chase you if you play their little games
So run, run fast sugarcane

You see my peep show booth is handy
There is one way only mirror
So I can dance here with my hair down
But I don't see if you get bitter
And there's a button there right beside me
If I happen to want a wall to hide me
If only the ballerina had one too

So grow tall sugarcane
Eat that soil, drink the rain
But know they'll chase you if you play their little games
So run, run fast sugarcane

And she said
always be afraid
yeah she said always be afraid

So grow tall sugarcane,
Eat the soil, drink the rain
But know they'll chase you if you play their little games
So run, run fast sugarcane

You'd better run, run fast sugarcane
You'd better run, run fast sugarcane
