She took a terrible selfie
Her smile was fake and ugly
Cruel beauty flashed momentarily
Leaving melancholy sophie

That email is impending
That text message must be sent
You want to save the penguins
But you haven’t paid the rent

Melancholy Sophie

Her dreams went disappearing
Out the open door
Now that youth with hair of golden
Will come visit her no more

Once he had declared
She was just no fun
He turned away in misery
Then broke into a furious run

Melancholy Sophie leave me be

Though she tried to follow
Her feet could not keep up
She will look again tomorrow
She will never give up

Melancholy Sophie
