Surprise Me -

What is it like to walk into a room

Like you’re backed by an army

Do your hands never shake

When you command attention

Like a general

Never see you break a sweat

You tell me «What they say, they will regret.»

And I wonder

What it’s like to be so cool

Oh Arra, bella Arra

Whip-smart tell me why

Poker-faced, pride of place

Always a surprise

(Surprise me)

What I’d give to be brave, so blasé

Like their sticks and stones could never break

All the time you are my kind of icon

Never giving what you can’t take

It’s okay, you say, shed a tear

Then make your anger armor, let them hear

What it’s like when you finally bear arms… and charges.

Oh Arra, bella Arra

Whip-smart tell me why

Poker-faced, pride of place

Always a surprise

Oh Arra, bella Arra

With the wit that makes them swoon

Tell me can you, show me, show me

How you sing down the moon

You say be brave

No, don’t cave in

Beat the band don’t let them beat you

Don’t give them a right to cut you in to pieces.

Oh Arra, bella Arra

Whip-smart tell me why

Poker-faced, pride of place

Always a surprise

Oh Arra, bella Arra

With the wit that makes them swoon

Tell me can you, show me, show me

How you sing down the moon
