TROUBLEMAKER
Lyrics by Jill Ohayon
Music by Sarah Slipp
Performed by Alivia Quattrocki
There’s a girl I know,
Never gets to talk,
And who runs to places people wouldn’t dare to walk.
There’s a girl I know
Who can see what others can’t.
There’s a girl I know who can hardly breathe at all,
Cause she’s the one who put the writing on the wall.
So they’ve gotta keep her hidden away.
They know just what she is and they say:
She’s a storm chaser.
She’s a risk taker.
She’s the beat of her own drum
Who will become
A troublemaker.
And they cannot deny it,
So they’ve got to keep her quiet.
Risk taker,
Troublemaker.
There’s a girl I know.
Always does what’s right,
Wears a smile,
Never ever would put up a fight.
There’s a girl I know
And she does just what they say.
There’s a girl I know
And she’s learned to stay in line.
Cause her whole life has been laid out by design.
But when she’s inside her own world,
She hears the voice of another kind of girl:
She’s a storm chaser.
She’s a rule breaker.
And she’s not afraid to fall
So they call her
Troublemaker.
And she could start a riot,
So they’ve got to keep her quiet.
Rule breaker,
Troublemaker.
But why should she stay quiet?
Let them shrink her?
Let them win?
Why should she hide
The girl she knows she is within?
Oh, they call her a flower,
Then decide which way she grows.
Don’t put red dye in a daisy
And call it a rose.
There’s a girl I know and she lives in me,
And I’ve hidden her away
From all the world to see.
Cause I’m a storm chaser.
I’m a trailblazer.
I’m a thrill seeker,
Wild schemer,
Rebel and a dreamer.
Though I’ve tried to deny it,
Should have never kept it quiet.
Risk taker,
Rule breaker,
Storm chaser,
Troublemaker.
