Baby Doll lyrics

Baby doll is on her trapeze

Wearing the smile that she never sees

Thinking of dollar as she tries to tease



Time to play Sheba on a wooden stage

Taking off the clothes that are grimy with age

Rubbing down the skin that is white and cold

And the sticking plasters that cover up the holes

Stared at by a man that would do her harm

Needs to earn the money that will feed his arm

He promised you security safe and warm

He promised you security safe and warm



They`ll never know the hurt that you feel inside

The emptiness you try to hide



I would melt your eyes that are glassy and cold

And as for the future when you grow old

Baby doll

Baby doll

They`ll never know the hurt you feel inside

The emptiness you try to hide



Take a tiny costume from a pile of clothes

Just a touch of glitter and a glow of gold

Pick on a failure make his knees go weak

Mouth open, eyes wide, fake your peak



He`ll wipe a line of dribble falling from his mouth

Make your wages later when you`re back at his house

Try to hide the mirror `cause it`s never kind

Kick start the heart that`s so hard to find

Try to save the beauty and to draw the line

Baby, baby, baby doll

Continue your search for a genuine love

Continue your search for a genuine love



Baby, baby, baby doll
