Lyrics Maria McKee

Maria McKee

High Dive

Blowing my trumpet

Believin' in something

Courageous and crazy

Nothing could phase me

'Till I hit the pavement

And now it's back to school

Ready to play the fool

'Cause I took a high dive into an empty pool

Wearin' the dunce cap

Stuck in the corner

Heckled and pecked at

All of the pack said "we tried to warn her"

What will I tell my friends?

When I run into them

I took a high dive into the shallow end

Everything planned out

None of it panned out

I could have mauled it straight to the top

If I kept my fangs out

What'll I tell my friends

I'll get up and try again

And I'll take a high dive

Someday I'll never land
