Pink - MTV Video Vanguard Award Speech Lyrics

I dance around this empty house
Tear us down, throw you out
Screaming down the halls
Spinning all around and now we fall

Pictures framing up the past
Your taunting smirk behind the glass
This museum full of ash
Once a tickle, now a rash

This used to be a funhouse
But now it's full of evil clowns
It's time to start the countdown
I'm gonna burn it down, down, down
I'm gonna burn it down

Echoes knocking on locked doors
All the laughter from the before
I'd rather live out on the street
Than in this haunted memory

I've called the movers, called the maids
We'll try to exorcise this place
Drag my mattress to the yard
Crumble, tumble, house of cards


This used to be a funhouse
But now it's full of evil clowns
It's time to start the countdown
I'm gonna burn it down down, down

This used to be a funhouse
But now it's full of evil clowns
It's time to start the countdown
I'm gonna burn it down down, down
I'm gonna burn it down

Take this pink ribbon off my eyes
I'm exposed and it's no big surprise
Don't you think I know exactly where I stand?
This world is forcing me to hold your hand

'Cause I'm just a girl, little ol' me
So don't let me out of your sight
Oh I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights
Oh we've had it up to

This used to be a funhouse (Oh I'm just a girl)
But now it's full of evil clowns (I'm just a girl
in the world)
It's time to start the countdown (Oh I'm just a
girl, just a girl)
I'm gonna burn it down down, down

This used to be a funhouse (Oh I'm just a girl)
But now it's full of evil clowns (I'm just a girl
in the world)
It's time to start the countdown (Oh I'm just a
girl, just a girl)
I'm gonna burn it down down, down
