Pink Ribbon

I bought you a few days ago

at the general store

you weren't very expensive

only about 49 cents.

i think you are worth much more.

Chorus:

Pink ribbons are all around me now.

I want to feel you unwind me

Pink ribbons, I see they surround you here.

Why won't you purchase me?

Pink ribbons, they chart your expenses always

Do you want a different color or something?

i cut a peice of you off

and tied you in my hair

i think you look quite nice

your pink coloring matches

my outfit.

Chorus:

Pink ribbons are all around me now.

I want to feel you unwind me

Pink ribbons, I see they surround you here.

Why won't you purchase me?

Pink ribbons, they chart your expenses

Do you want a different color or something?

your spool is a nice circle

made out of cardboard.

you make me smile,

on your nice circle of cardboard.

somehow i cannot go on without you.

Chorus:

Pink ribbons are all around me now.

I want to feel you unwind me

Pink ribbons, I see they surround you here.

Why won't you purchase me?

Pink ribbons, they chart your expenses

Do you want a different color or something?

I guess this is good bye.

I have used up all of your yardage.

I will keep this spool in your memory.

and i will hold a funeral for you.

I just want to say thanks for all the good times.

You were a great friend.

Lets not make this too painful.

Goodbye.

Chorus:

Pink ribbons are all around me now.

I want to feel you unwind me

Pink ribbons, I see they surround you here.

Why won't you purchase me?

Pink ribbons, they chart your expenses

Do you want a different color or something?
