M Doll lyrics

I wanna let you in on a little secret I've learned:

People ain't no good

If I speak low, it’s ‘cause I'm afraid

What comes if I'm understood

In this dystopia of the free,

A little channel for you and me

And when the night surrounds you

Like an empty coat offered by someone else,

Doors open for you

And you're pleased to enter them by yourself

It doesn't phase you at all

'Cause you're a marketing doll

And the hands all clap when you walk on by

Like you want them to

You're a smoking gun, an antenna for fun,

Eyes of sulfur blue

You smell like a rainbow

Anything's possible, oh, you know

Eyes fixed on the logo

Why would you want to know

Know me at all?

Know me at all?

When you deliver on cue and you clap your hands

Like they want you to

And when they leave you behind 'cause you're 29

What's a girl/boy1 to do?

It doesn't phase you at all

'Cause you're a marketing doll

It doesn't phase you at all

'Cause you're a marketing doll

In disbelief's suspension

You're the deceit of attention

It doesn't phase you at all

'Cause you're a marketing doll
