One Little Soldier

Did you think you'd get to run the world forever? Little soldiers fighting loyal by your side That you'd get to play the role of grand commander Never questioning your motives or your pride One little soldier Talking to the others One little soldier Calling out the cowards You've got them real long legs Won't you tell us a story? I can listen to you dance all day You've got them real long legs Won't you tell us a story? Doesn't even matter what you say Did you want me as your whore or your Madonna? Did you want me to stay quiet or get loud? Did you want me in bright lights or in your shadow? Did you want 'cause you knew I'd draw a crowd? In the game the little soldiers get maneuvered If you lose a few you easily move on Bet you never thought your soldiers could undo you Now did you? But to tip the score it sometimes takes just one One little soldier Talking to the others One little soldier Running through your tower One little soldier Plugging into your power One little soldier Calling you a coward You've got them real long legs Won't you tell us a story? I can listen to you dance all day You've got them real long legs Won't you tell us a story? Doesn't even matter what you say You've got them real long legs Won't you tell us a story? I can listen to you dance all night You've got them real long legs Won't you tell us a story? Doesn't matter if it's wrong or right Woo! --- One Little Soldier - Regina Spektor
