    The song is called Butterfly in Reverse.

    Here are the lyrics:

    Maryann you're better than the world

    They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl

    I said Maryann you're better than the world

    They did a lot of things right on this girl

    I had a lot of girlfriends

    I should have known them

    Click your heels and count back from three

    Do you want to go back

    You should have known that

    The butterfly in reverse here is me

    Maryann you're better than the world

    They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl

    I said Maryann you're better than the world

    They did a lot of things right on this girl

    Where'd you want to go to

    with nothing beside you

    But webbing and curfews and rain

    And everything that hurts you

    Gets stuffed up inside you

    Like butterflies with wings

    or other perfect things

    We go swimming in the sunshine

    Dangling from clotheslines

    Separate and fall into me

    And did you ever see me

    Me absolutely

    Me but all you but still me

    Maryann you're better than the world

    They took a lot of time getting it right on this girl

    I said Maryann you're better than the world

    They did a lot of things right on this girl did alot of things right on this 2X

    did alot of things right on this girl
