Lyrics of Marie in the Middle by Melissa Ferrick
verse
Marie is dancing
With a rainbow song
She's dancing in the clouds above my head
With no music on
Marie is dancing
With a rainbow song
She's dancing in the clouds above my head
With no way music on
verse
Marie in the middle
Three came before
Or two came after
Life was loud
And they were poor
verse
And on the rock
In front of her house
We played King of the World
And Marie in the middle always came last
chorus
Until the sun it came burning
And it set her soul on fire
Until the fire it went raging
There was no way for her to survive
No way to survive
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
verse
Tired, tired of life's frustrations
You know Marie turned away
Until she captured the drug
That would take her to an early grave
chorus
Until the sun it came burning
Set her soul on fire
Until the fire it went raging
There was no way for her to survive
Marie in the middle, no way to survive
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
bridge
Then her son, he rode a car
To say to goodbye to his mum
We were all transfixed
By the boy in the tie
Wearing shoes made for men
verse
Then I said Marie is dancing
With a rainbow song
She's dancing in the clouds above my head
With no music on
Marie is dancing
With a rainbow song
She's dancing in the clouds above my head
With no music on
outro
Marie is dancing
With a rainbow song
She's dancing in the clouds above my head
With no music on
