She must have been a hell of a princess
Brush fire burning out of a midwest town
A cosmopolitan place, Topeka, Topeka, Topeka
Daddy got a new job in Lodi
SF became a mighty fine place to drown
But such a waste of grace, when I think about it now
She’s 16 again in a summer dress
Driving with a new permit
Then life came along and ruined it
I’m mystified
She ain’t Miss America
Won’t be a blushing bride
In my dirty mind
I’m the game winning quarterback
She’s cheering from the sidelines, yeah
She lookin’ wonderful
And knowing it
Tak? me to heaven
For th? hell of it
She lookin’ wonderful
And knowing it
Joyriding in the mothership
We used to be the hometown heroes
I bet they’re wondering, where are their heroes now?
A million miles from a place like Topeka, Topeka, Topeka
Another sad story in the Tenderloin
Or heavy hitters riding high
I’ll leave it all to you to make up your minds
I’m mystified
She ain’t Miss America
Won’t be a blushing bride
In my dirty mind
I’m the game winning quarterback
She’s cheering from the sidelines, yeah
She lookin’ wonderful
And knowing it
Take me to heaven
For the hell of it
She lookin’ wonderful
And knowing it
Joyriding in the mothership
Now you’re 16 again in a summer dress
Choking on a cigarette
Then life came along and ruined it, yeah
I’m mystified she ain’t Miss America
Won’t be a blushing bride
In my dirty mind
I’m the game show heart attack
I’m taking home the grand prize, yeah
You’re lookin’ wonderful and knowing it
Take me to heaven in your burned out crypt, yeah
You’re lookin’ wonderful and knowing it
Joyriding in the mother ship
I’m mystified, yeah
The lyrics MYSTIFIED of BETTER THAN EZRA is also present in the album Super magick (2024)
Better Than Ezra è un gruppo rock alternativo statunitense formatosi nel 1987 da studenti universitari. La promettente carriera del gruppo subì un duro colpo con il suicidio del bassista originale Joel Rundell nel 1990. Tuttavia, nel 1993 pubblicarono l'album *Deluxe*, che li portò a ottenere numerosi contratti discografici. *Deluxe* fu ripubblicato due anni dopo, dopo la firma con l'etichetta Elektra, e generò un successo radiofonico con il brano "Good", raggiungendo le vendite di platino. Il gruppo ha continuato a pubblicare album di successo negli anni successivi, consolidando la propria posizione nel panorama musicale alternativo.
