guess what? there's a song called "wunderkind" off the Narnia soundtrack

Its by Alanis Morisette and its been nominated for a Golden Globe in the best original song for a motion picture category.great. but what peeves me is that she pronounces Wunderkind (which means wonder child in German) as wonder-kaind instead of voonder-kind, with "kind"pronounced as it is in kindergarten. ergh..she made it all american and stuff. oh wait, canadian. haha. the lyrics are almost poetic and perfect unseen text material for the lit exams. correction: what i would like to have for an unseen text in my lit exams. but of course, ican only wish. signing off, the ANJAXIVE WUNDERKIND ;)
"Wunderkind"
Oh, perilous place walk backwards toward you
Blink disbelieving eyes chilled to the bone
Most visibly brave no apprehended bloom
First to take this foot to virgin snow
I am magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
And I live the envelope pushed far enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to serve, destined to roam
Oh, ominous place spellbound and un-child-proofed
My least favorite shelter bear alone
Compatriots in face they’d cringe if I told you
Our best back pocket secret our bond full blown
And I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
And I am pioneer naïve enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to seek, destined to know
Most beautiful place reborn and blown off roof
My view about face whether great will be done
And I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
I am a groundbreaker naïve enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
And I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind
I am a Joan of Arc and smart enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
Destined to reign, destined to roam
Destined to reign, destined to roam
