Tanz Der China Dolls

Swap a name for a number.
Find a cage, find a chain.
Find a plate, slip it under...
Feed it every other day.
Keep the scenery the same,
Keep the family away.
Keep it sane, keep it safe.
Take that rope away
It likes to play
(Especially with itself when the eyes are turned away).
Light the lights!
Call the others...
Make a circle, make it blush.
Make it flush the mess away.
Tell it 'God is .'
Then make it pray.
And I met her in the
Park and she'd changed.
She shrugged away each time I tried to touch her,
When I tried to tell her that it's over...
The nightmare is finished -
Let's start again...
No more pain...
No more worry...
But the only word was 'sorry'.
They'd had their way.
She blew a kiss, said 'sorry' too.
We're broken china dolls...
