Wrecking Ball (County Fair Edition)

(To the tune of Miley Cyrus's "Wrecking Ball")

To the fair I came, and who could blame
Me for wanting to be fed
I gnawed, I chewed through thirteen pies
But saw them crown you instead

Don't you ever swear you won fair and square
You're a dirty liar
Your hands were not restrained, fingertips are stained
You've sparked an angry fire

I came in like a wrecking ball
So I could win this pie contest
But you put your hands right on the plate
Now I'm gonna throw this pie at you
Yeah I'll throw this pie at you

As that pie left my hands I knew
I never could take it back
But I wasn't alone in wrath
Soon others joined in the attack

Pies were flying high through the sunlit sky
Blueberries all over
More and more pies flew 'til I truly knew
I had to duck and cover

We came in like a wrecking ball
A great food fight was started there
All I wanted was to prove my point
But it got so out of hand

We came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, we just closed our eyes and flung
Left you covered in blueberry slime
Don't think you'll ever cheat again
Yeah, you won't want to cheat again

I never meant to start a war
I was just so mad you cheated
Although I wanted that medal
It was not something I needed
I never meant to start a war
I never should have thrown that pie
And started this massive food fight

Now I think I'd say I should have walked away
Instead of throwing that pie

I came in like a wrecking ball
I'm just so darn competitive
But instead of throwing pies at you
I should have been willing to forgive

I came in like a wrecking ball
Started something I could not stop
Made a mess of the county fair
And I wrecked everything
Instead of accepting defeat
I wrecked everything
