Jill Sobule - Gifted Child lyrics

What a bright girl, what a beautiful girl

She's gonna be somebody someday

We'll take her to the best schools

She will be a prodigy

Nothing's gonna stand in her way

She'll be what they raised her to be

Never had the opportunity

To fulfill their broken dreams

The Gifted Child

The Gifted Child

What a good girl, an exceptional girl

She'll make some man real happy someday

She's gonna be her father's pride, the perfect bride

She won't make her mother's mistake

She'll be what they raised her to be

It's a big responsibility

To fulfill their broken dreams

They'll live through her

The Gifted Child

The Gifted Child
