Amy In The White Coat |
You take your clothes off |
Right after school |
The tea is on |
The flame is blue |
And you hope it won’t take |
All afternoon |
The TV’s waiting |
To talk to you |
It’s your naked body |
On white velour |
But there’s no feeling |
Just weight on you |
But you get nauseous now |
As he speaks to you |
Such proper language |
For acts so cruel |
He says «we all follow the rules |
We can’t very well go and break them now can we? |
For you, for you, for you. |
Your older sisters |
I had them too |
But you’re my favorite |
You know it’s true |
You look like your mother |
In that thin disguise |
Your parting mouth |
Your shining eyes |
And the way that you hate me |
And the length of your hair |
It’s the reason I make you |
It’s the bond that we share |
Cos you were all trying to endure it |
You could easily go and make your own life somewhere |
Couldn’t you? |
Couldn’t you? |
Couldn’t you, couldn’t you, couldn’t you, |
couldn’t you, couldn’t you?" |
With the sun beams bright |
You keep your eyes shut |
Your alarm clock lies |
Get to school on time |
But you’re a bag of warm fluid |
You’re the corpse in the class |
You walk so near to your locker |
You lay so low in the grass |
Did you get that coat from the principal? |
Did you get that bruise on the bus? |
You should wash your hair more |
You should look more like us |
But I saw you walking once |
Under powder blue skies |
You looked cold still |
Your collar was high |
And I tried to talk to you |
But you walked right by |
I don’t know which I said then |
«Hello» or «Goodbye» |
And yet we’re all trying to be pure |
But it isn’t a very easy thing, now is it? |
To do, To do, To do, To do, To do, To do |
Isn’t it, Isn’t it, Isn’t it, Isn’t it, Isn’t it, Isn’t it, Isn’t it, Isn’t it? |
