there was an ancient lady
Who lived across the hall from my home
Us kids all thought she was
Believed her gaze could turn us into stone
She had a statue of a girl in her garden
But like one that went missing long ago
At least that's the story we all believe
Turn to stone, turn to stone
We believed she could turn us into stone
Turn to stone, turn to stone
Who someday I hope to make my own
As though her glances turned
Turned to stone, turned to stone
It was like that girl could turn
Turned to stone, turned to stone
It was like that girl could turn me into stone
The first time I saw her I was struck dumb
The second time I saw her I was numb
The third time I saw her she was all alone
cause I was turned to stone
The first time I saw her I was struck dumb
The second time I saw her I went numb
The third time I saw her she was all alone
cause I was turned to stone
I went and asked my best friend
He said no I'd have to do it on my own
But recommended something
I said goodbye and hung up
I'd rather just be strung up
Than be tongue -tied every
I turned to stone, turned to stone
It was like that girl could
Turned to stone, turned to stone
It was like she could turn me into stone
Turned to stone, turned to stone
It was like that girl could turn
Turned to stone, turned to stone
It was like she could turn me into stone
It was like she could turn me into stone
It was like she could turn me into stone
