The Lament of Pretty Baby |
I saw something I was not supposed to see |
A ghostly memory that keeps on haunting me |
The kitchen door was open a crack |
So naively we peeked inside |
Oh, darling sister, have they hurt you |
Have they hurt you? |
Uh-huh |
Oh, Pretty Baby, they won’t touch you |
They won’t touch you again |
We will fix this incident |
I don’t want to be seen as a pretty thing |
'Cause it’s the pretty things |
That we’re always breaking |
And now she whispers into the mirror: «I'm broken» |
Oh doctor, doctor, can you fix me |
Can you fix me? |
Uh-huh |
Oh Pretty Baby, you’re so naive |
But it comes off so cute |
We don’t want to fix you |
We love you just the way you are |
The butterfly pinned to the page |
The nightingale locked in the cage |
Won’t you sing for me? |
Sing for me, uh-huh |
Yeah, we love you just the way you are |
Crushed 'neath fashion magazines |
Trampled by circus pony dreams |
Won’t you kiss me? |
Won’t you kiss me, uh-huh? |
Oh please, mister, can’t you fix me? |
Can’t you fix me? |
Uh-huh |
Someone, anyone, won’t you fix me? |
Won’t you fix me? |
Uh-huh |
Oh, someone, please, the moon has raped me |
I can feel it inside me |
Oh, Mama, please let someone fix me! |
Let them fix me, uh-huh |
Let them fix me, uh-huh |
So cry yourself to sleep |
Cry yourself to sleep |
I am strong, and you are weak |
Wait, you are strong, and I am weak |
Fuck, just cry yourself to sleep, uh-huh |
