lyrics

CHORUS: Edwina Mae is in the spring play
But to get up on that stage, well, there's just no way
Sometimes she shrinks so small, you can barely see her at all

First it's her heartbeat, like the stomping of hooves
Then her legs get frozen, no they can't even move

CHORUS

Kids push around her, yeah they ramble about
The lead actors prance and they speak with a shout
Edwina the flower, will she wilt in the light
She's pushed to her mark, crippled with fright

In her mind she seems like she's of giant-size
And all the audience can't avert their eyes from her

And then her best friend Miss Sandy Lee
She plays the part of a bumblebee
Holds Edwina Mae by the hand
And the flower takes a stand

Edwina Mae had a part in the play
And she got up on that stage, one of her proudest days
She felt so tall, no it wasn't that bad after all
