You were the apple of the public's eye as you cut the ribbon at the local mall   The pride of both you and us - how can it be real   We love your body in that photograph, your home state sure must be proud   The queen of the United States, or have you lost your crown      Well aren't you Miss America   Don't you Miss America   Won't you Miss America   Our love      Well are you really who we think you are   Or does that smile seem to wear you down   This girl who you once were is screaming jump out   This dream that you must live - a disease for which there is no cure   This roller coaster ride you're on won't stop to let you off      Well aren't you Miss America   Don't you Miss America   Won't you Miss America   Our love      Miss America, Miss America   Miss America, Miss America      Well it's true just take a look - The cover sometimes makes the book   And the judges, do they ever ask to read between your lines   And in your cage at the human zoo, they all stop to look at you   Next year, what will you do when you have been forgotten      Well aren't you Miss America   Don't you Miss America   Won't you Miss America   Our love      Miss America [repeat and fade]
