Tanz Der China Dolls Lyrics

Legendary Pink Dots 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...
