Well she should have gone to school and she should have made it through, but she never   And she should have studied hard, and she should have played the part, but she never   Oh she should have kept her head and got out of bed more in the mornings   And she should have had her day, she'd have done it her way but she never      She made her father worry til he was sick   Found him on the couch one night cold and stiff   Now she drinks away the will and she's not proud of it      Oh Stacey look what you've done   You think that you're the only one      Well she should have had more time to get to know the world a little better   And she should have had more friends to glue her brain and stick it back together   But she had to go around and disagree with everyone she knew   And now all her friends they're going to help her spend her forune      She made her father worry til he was sick   Found him on the couch one night cold and stiff   Now she drinks away the will and she's not proud of it      "Oh mother mother was it always going to be this way?"   It didn't have to daughter but I knew that's what you'd say   "I will put the flowers on and visit every week"   But that won't wake your father from his everlasting sleep
