Lyrics China Doll - Birdeatsbaby

China Doll

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
