SHE HERO
(Music and Lyrics by Marcella Puppini)
She has the eyes of a champion
Clear and awake all the time
She
Calls
And I follow
She knows the words to inspire me
She speaks of power and of love
She
Calls
And I follow
She’s my She hero she’s my she hero………x3
She’s mine
She has the strength of a warrior
She shows the way to be free
She
Calls
And I follow
She has the eyes of an old soul
Wise and ahead of the world
She
Calls
And I follow
She’s my She hero she’s my she hero………x3
She’s mine

STELLA
(Music and Lyrics by Marcella Puppini)
INTRO:
Stella the Russian Goddess in the gem sweater
Jowly and somber, speaks of getting better
Stella with distant eyes and a translator
Speaks to my baffled soul of the creator
Stel-la-la-la-la-la
Can you save me? X3
INTRO:
Stella the Muse, the bruiser, I’m so confused
My heart is racing, Stella, I am not amused
Maybe you’re real, a healer, not here to steal
The hopes of a damaged soul for your next meal
Stel-la-la-la-la-la
Can you save me? X3
Stella, I know you feel it, it’s time to go
New fools are waiting, Stella, will you let them know
There once was a trusting someone you left behind
Who hopes they can see the darkness of your cruel mind
Stel-la-la-la-la-la
Can you save me? X3

BORN BEAUTIFUL
(Music and Lyrics by Marcella Puppini)
If I had been born beautiful
I’d smile
Whenever someone looked at me
And I
Would not feel like a prisoner
Of my
Insecurities
If I had been born beautiful
I
Would feel like I’m invincible
And I
Would have doors open that now are
Shut
To the likes of me
If I had been born beautiful
I
Would not have had to work so hard
To find
My little corner in the sun
Cos I
Would just belong
If I had been born beautiful
I
Would not read fashion magazines
And cry
And wonder why I’m not like them
And why
Are they better than me?
If I had been born beautiful
You’d see me
I wouldn’t have to shout so loud
To be
More than a shadow in your eyes
I
Would be someone
If I had been born beautiful
Would I
Have turned out any happier
Or wise
Would I have had a better life
Would I?

DIRTY OLD MEN
(Music and Lyrics by Marcella Puppini)
You were the one with the hard appendage
Pressing up against me on a bus
You were the one with the clammy finger
Tickling my palm as we shook hands
You, with desperate grabbing hands
Me, with youth and noble plans
Easy prey
Dirty old men, AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH X 4
You were the one in the ladies’ toilets
Whipping your aggression in the dark
You were the one with the toothless anger
Ogling and cursing from afar
You, with desperate grabbing hands
Me, with youth and noble plans
Easy prey
Dirty old men, AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH X 4
I miss you, now I’ve grown.

NO, BILLY, PLEASE
(Music and Lyrics by Marcella Puppini)
They say he never cried
But the day his true love died
That brought him to his knees
No, Billy, Please
They saw him by her house
He stood night after night
Leaning on a willow tree
No, Billy, please
The years went passing by
And his eyes had barely dried
When she first arrived in town
It made Billy drown
To see her face so pure
And so like the one before
Who now lay beneath the trees
No, Billy, please
He tried to take her hand
But the sight of that old man
Made her scream in sickened fear
No, Billy, please
His rage arose like flames
And before he knew her name
With his knife her life he seized
No, Billy, please

RUN WHILE YOU CAN
(Music and Lyrics by Marcella Puppini)
My brother saw the devil
On a lonely winter night
It was dark but he was certain
He was not fooled by his sight
So the devil paid a visit
To the ordinary boy
Left him shaking in the darkness
And his innocence destroyed
He said Run, Run, Run,
Run while you can…………..
My sister heard some voices
On a lonely winter night
They were faint but she was certain
That she heard them clear and right
Were they calling out for someone
She was certain it was me
But those melancholy whispers
Came from mouths she could not see
He said Run, Run, Run,
Run while you can………….. X2
So I ran away from my home
To a city full of lights
I lived frantic days of searching
And sedated all my nights
But the darkness was inside me
Where there is no place to hide
Through the years I’ve learnt to love it
And I’m now its faithful bride
He said Run, Run, Run,
Run while you can………….. X3

Birdeatsbaby are my favourite Alt-classical-Punk band. They have long been part of the dark Cabaret scene, but unlike may others they have catchy songs and beautifully crafted arrangements. Marcella
