lyrics

I am a Cinderella. I stole my sister's umbrella. How else can a girl stay dry? I am a morning glory shaded by the understory of concrete, steel and sky. Mmm... sugar.

I am a Mary Poppins sipping sweet concoctions one spoonful at a time. I am a blade of grass growing under the overpass of concrete, steel and sky. Mmm... spoonful of sugar.

I'll wait my turn. I'll stand in line. Single file or two at a time.
Mmm... sugar.

I am a Cinderella. I'm gonna steal Mary's umbrella - watch me as I fly.
I am a black-winged lory soaring over the understory of concrete, steel and sugar. Spoonful of sugar.
