Alls Lost I Shot The Albatross by Tinker Wright Lyrics

I pitied myself as diamonds
Poured out of my mouth
And everybody else applauded
As I stood still and cried
Yes Yes Yes Yes
I stood still and I cried

I stole back my fear of magic
For a split second then it was gone
And once again I was engulfed by logic
And intimidated by common sense
Oh I fear I'm too much like my father
I should've resisted this a whole lot harder
All's lost! I shot the Albatross
All's lost! I shot the Albatross

I met a magician in the forest
He gave me three wishes
First I wished I wanted to want not
Then I gave the other two to my little brother
Never underestimate the power of girl's ways
They are the exception to the rule
Knowing what to do
I never know what to do
Babe I promise I'm still just as keen
I'm just not running as wild as I was when I was seventeen
All's lost! I shot the Albatross
All's lost! I shot the Albatross
All's lost! I shot the Albatross
All's lost! I shot the Albatross
I did what I really should not have
I shot, I shot the Albatross

Oh I fear I'm too much like my father
I should've resisted this a whole lot harder
Babe I promise I'm still just as keen
I'm just not running as wild as I was when I was seventeen
When I, seventeen, oh
When I, seventeen
