She took a lot of pills Lyrics

With her drop-dead looks and her little-girl charm
Everybody thought she'd go far
And at 20 years old she was rich as could be

In a soft close-up, with her hair backlit,
She seemed to glow inside
Yeah, but something went wrong, 'cause forty years on
She took a lot of pills and died.
