The Girl With the Patent Leather Face
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look, she's here again
The girl with the patent leather face
Tears pictures out of magazines
Looks longingly at makeup ads
And glossy spreads of beauty queens
The girl with the patent leather face
Sits in a darkened bedsit gloom
She chains her door, squats on the floor
Lets no one into her room
Two faced baby
Shiny baby
Two faced baby
Shiny baby
You can laugh, point at me
They do it all the time
But how would you like it if you had
A face like mine
The girl with the patent leather face
Is a psychopathic mental case
A target for the freaks and creeps
A reject of the human race
The girl with the patent leather face
Hangs around the mutant bars
She tampers with machinery
So other beauties crash their cars
Two faced baby
Shiny, shiny, shiny, shiny baby
Two faced baby
You can laugh, point at me
They do it all the time
But how would you like it if you had
A face like mine
The girl with the patent leather face
Tears pictures out of magazines
Looks longingly at makeup ads
And glossy spreads of beauty queens
The girl with the patent leather face
Sits in a darkened bedsit gloom
She chains her door, squats on the floor
Lets no one into her room
I'm alone and she's alone
And we should get together
I'll never ask you to remove
Your mask of shiny
Patent leather
Patent leather
If you kiss me
Kiss me
You can laugh, point at me
They do it all the time
But how would you like it if you had
A face like mine
Had a
Face like mine
Had a face like mine
If you kiss me, kiss me
Kiss me, kiss me
Shiny baby
With your lips of
Patent leather
And your cold, cold eyes
