You knew she was in trouble

When you saw her bodyguard

When you saw those two together

You knew it wasn't hard

To see that she was different

Not just one of the girls

With their gliding and their sliding

And their pirouettes and twirls

Then it turned out that she smoked

And drank and posed practically nude

And she didn't smile all of the time

She got angry and was crude

No she wasn't goody-two-skates like

All the other girls

With their grinning and their spinning

And their winning little twirls

And her childhood was unhappy

Her mom was really weird

Her husband liked to hit her

But it was poverty she feared

She grew up in the trailer parks

Not like most other girls

With their gliding and their sliding

And their whirling little twirls yeah

Yes they all look like princesses

Little Barbies to the core

But she was your parents worst nightmare

The s**t who moved next door

From the wrong side of the track

She liked the boys more than the girls

With their gliding and their sliding

And their girlish dainty twirls

And it seemed like she was lying about

What she didn't know

And then she started crying

In the media sideshow

And in practice she kept

Falling down more than the other girls

With their gliding and their sliding

And their picture perfect twirls

And they almost towed her truck way uh

The whole thing was a drag

Forget about Campbell Soup and Reebok

Weedy's or the flag

Huh there'll be books

She'll make some money

That's what they're after

All these girls

With their selling

Kiss and telling and

Their twisted little twirls

So play the national anthem

Stand up proud and tall

Ooh we hope that ours don't stumble

And that theirs slip and fall

Remember Olga Korbut

What happens to these girls

With their triple-flips and axels

And their somersaults and twirls

Ice used to be a nice thing

When you laced up figure skates

Now it's a thing to win a medal

On for the United States

But once there were no lutzes

Axels pirouettes or twirls

Just giddy slipping sliding

Laughing happy little girls
