They gave her one job
“Just look after this box
But darlin’, darlin’, I’m warning you
Don’t open it!”
Nobody told her
Curiosity killed the cat
Fortunately for her
Curiosity killed the world
And so
She let the latch come loose
And so
The world went to ruin

Pandora
Why’d you open that box?
You should’ve known you would get caught!
Now a small child is crying,
People everywhere are dying
Moaning like
“ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
Pandora, why?”

Realizing what she did
She quickly shut the lid
Pandora didn’t see
She left the one thing we’d need
Luckily for her
She thought she’d saved the world
Luckily for the world
She left hope inside the box.
And so
The world is now in ruin.
And so
There’s no hope for anyone.

Pandora
Why’d you open that box?
You should’ve known you would get caught!
Now a small child is crying,
People everywhere are dying
Moaning like
“ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
Pandora, why?”
Pandora,Pandora,why?
Pandora,Pandora,why?

Pandora
Why’d you open that box?
You should’ve known you would get caught!
Now a small child is crying,
People everywhere are dying
Moaning like
“ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay
Pandora, why?
Pandora
Please empty that box.”
