Broken Doll

Old discarded broken doll,

whatever are you smiling for?

They left you alone again,

dirty face and half naked

for whoever wants a place in your broken heart.

In your store bought dreams that all looked so good

when you were in your teens

Somebody pick you up, dust you off

bring you to life.

Pretty broken baby,

pick you up, dust you off, bring you to life

I was such a lovely doll

they broke me and they left me on the shelf

sorry for myself I'd accepted

I'd never be more than broken plastic

with a broken heart

In my store bought dreams that all looked so good

when I was in my teens.

Somebody pick me up, dust me off

bring me to life,

Pretty broken baby,

pick me up, dust me off, bring me to life.

Well how long must we wait for love?

When all we've made is a waste of life

how long, how long, must we wait for love...

I found him, he was on the mend,

more broken than I'd ever been

then I shot him by surprise in the hear and

even though we were both discarded dolls

with broken hearts and store bought dreams

that all looked so good when we were in our teens,

Well we picked us up, dusted off,

brought us to life,

pretty broken babies,

picked us up, dusted off, brought us to life.

I was such a lovely doll...
