Isn't That Lovely, Dear (Acoustic Version)

They told you you should focus on career

They point ahead and whisper in your ear

The road is laid out for you we will cheer

Well isn't that lovely dear

You're kicking your ambition into gear

The hours fall like rain and disappear

Well isn't that lovely dear

Ooh

And after juggling deadlines and bills

They ask you if you could smile some more

Make sure to hide it when you shed a tear

Just show them that you're happy to be here

Isn't that lovely dear

You tell yourself to push another year

You patch the leaks and try to steer it clear

Well I think that's lovely dear

Ooh

Your worth was never measured by your goals

They're nice to have but they're only that

And they'll never see the battles that you won

Don't hide your scars that part of who you are
