The Ceramic Beauty
I’m trying to make my great escape
I’m being held behind these painted bars
Against my will
I can only just see through
Those painted bars
I use all my strength to move some bars
So I can just see through
Those painted bars
I want to escape this plate
I’m not planning on hanging around
I will wait until this plate is forgotten
I will make my great escape
I don’t want my life to be served on a plate
I want to escape
Those painted bars
I am a ceramics designer beauty
Held against my will
You will help me to escape?
I have such ambition
I do not deserve to be behind
Those painted bars
I want to be the smiling Mona Lisa
My beauty worth millions
To gaze and stare
I should be up there
At the Tate Gallery
Instead I’m on a ceramic plate
I want to escape
Those painted bars
