Perfect room, paperback in hand.
Turns the pages of her only friend
She don’t care in her mind she’s free
She can do anything when she reads
Looks out the window, watches children play
Used to wish that would be her one day
Mocking kids she don’t need
She can be anyone when she reads
And ‘though we sympathise
She’s not seeking pity
Oh please don’t patronise
She’s got what she needs
Looks at her shelves, all the books she’s got
Row upon row and she’s read the lot
She don’t leave the house except in her dreams
She can be anywhere when she reads
And ‘though we sympathise
She’s not seeking pity
Oh please don’t patronise
She’s got what she needs
And ‘though we sympathise
She’s not seeking pity
Oh please don’t patronise
She’s got what she needs
Easing herself closer to the bed
Getting late time to rest her head
In the moonlight her mind can see
The words alive in the books she reads
And ‘though we sympathise
She’s not seeking pity
Oh please don’t patronise
She’s got what she needs
