Advice For The Lovelorn

From Tonio K.'s song, "Cinderella's Baby":

...don't you believe it
when they tell you that your face won't do and you've got to make one up
when they try to sell you the latest miracle drug;
don't you believe it.
all your sisters before you fell victim to fictional love upon love upon lover
but you just take your time and try to figure out some kind of truth
and try to find someone who's tryin' to figure it out just like you

cinderella's baby
we've been bought and sold and we don't even know their names
we've been caught and thrown to the lions, don't look for the cage
you can't see it -- it's everywhere
got a feelin' that really there's only one road left to choose
so if you'll cover for me, i'll cover for you

and don't you believe it
when they tell you that your life won't do
and you've got to make one up
don't you believe it ...
