China Doll - Birdeatsbaby

He wakes up to shave with a rusty razor

Blade that dim reflection says that ‘he's a man' to

Day and not a boy which until previously had been

Employed by those who know

It’s a pleasure

And Oh you’re a treasure

I feel better

With just a measure of

Poison for the lady who’s expecting his dear baby

And it’s only a matter of time

Till he wakes up face down on the

Bedroom floor and his wallet-is-gone-and-it's-almost-four

He meant to meet the girl…

But it seems that someone else

Took initiative

In fulfilling this

And you won’t forgive

Such a sensitive

Subject for her slim physique I wish to hold my tongue but speak cos

It’s not a baby, It’s a china doll

You’ve got some nerve — You’re never here at all

She tells you maybe just to make you fall

But she’s no lady she’s just mean and

Cruel to be kind

And Saintly inside

Now I need to lay my head down to

Rest this situation’s gone from a mockery into a

Mess she’s not your type I under-

-stand it’s not that

Easy to let it go

And you’ll never know

How to take it slow

And be comfortably

Blind to all her cruel convictions

Shame that you can’t see that

She’s playing you all for a fool

SHE’S GOT A BONE TO PICK WITH EVERYONE I KNOW

So stop

Your

Cry-

Ing

There

Be-

Low

Cos

It’s not a baby, It’s a china doll

You’ve got some nerve — You’re never here at all

She tells you maybe just to make you fall

But she’s no lady she’s just mean and

Not my problem
