The Bolter
[00:04.00] By all accounts, she almost drowned
[00:06.66] When she was six in frigid water
[00:12.52] And I can confirm she made
[00:14.64] A curious child, ever reviled
[00:17.04] By everyone except her own father
[00:22.61] With a quite bewitching face
[00:24.74] Splendidly selfish, charmingly helpless
[00:27.67] Excellent fun 'til you get to know her
[00:33.00] Then she runs like it's a race
[00:35.39] Behind her back, her best mates laughed
[00:37.78] And they nicknamed her "The Bolter"
[00:44.96] Started with a kiss
[00:46.29] "Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
[00:48.41] But it always ends up with a town car speeding
[00:52.13] Out the drive one evening
[00:55.58] Ended with the slam of a door
[00:57.44] Then he'll call her a whore
[00:58.77] Wish he wouldn't be sore
[00:59.92] But as she was leaving
[01:02.58] It felt like breathing
[01:06.83] All her fuckin' lives
[01:09.75] Flashed before her eyes
[01:17.46] It feels like the time
[01:20.18] She fell through the ice
[01:24.16] Then came out alive
[01:27.88] He was a cad, wanted her bad
[01:30.28] Just like any good trophy hunter
[01:36.11] And she liked the way it tastes
[01:37.98] Taming a bear, making him care
[01:40.63] Watching him jump then pulling him under
[01:46.20] And at first blush, this is fate
[01:48.41] When it's all roses, portrait poses
[01:51.07] Central Park Lake in tiny rowboats
[01:56.65] What a charming Saturday
[01:58.77] That's when she sees the littlest leaks
[02:01.69] Down in the floorboards
[02:03.03] And she just knows she must bolt
[02:08.60] Started with a kiss
[02:09.66] "Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
[02:11.84] But it always ends up with a town car speeding
[02:15.56] Out the drive one evening
[02:19.02] Ended with the slam of a door
[02:20.87] Then he'll call her a whore
[02:22.20] Wish he wouldn't be sore
[02:23.53] But as she was leaving
[02:26.45] It felt like breathing
[02:29.64] All her fuckin' lives
[02:33.09] Flashed before her eyes (Ah-ah-ah)
[02:41.06] It feels like the time
[02:43.45] She fell through the ice
[02:47.70] Then came out alive
[02:50.62] She's been many places with
[02:52.75] Men of many faces
[02:54.87] First, they're off to the races
[02:57.53] And she's laughing, drawin' aces
[03:00.19] But none of it is changin'
[03:02.84] That the chariot is waitin'
[03:05.23] Hearts are hers for the breakin'
[03:07.90] There's escape in escaping
[03:11.62] Started with a kiss
[03:12.42] "Oh, we must stop meeting like this"
[03:13.75] But it always ends up with a town car speeding
[03:18.00] Out the drive one evenin'
[03:21.45] Ended with the slam of a door
[03:23.31] But she's got the best stories
[03:24.64] You can be sure
[03:25.97] That as she was leaving
[03:28.62] It felt like freedom
[03:33.41] All her fuckin' lives
[03:35.79] Flashed before her eyes (And she realized)
[03:43.26] It feels like the time
[03:46.18] She fell through the ice
[03:49.90] Then came out alive
