Your Only Doll (Dora)

I fell into the street, poison in my veins

Clambered to my feet and into the night again

Back to my home, back to my owner

Who screams at my tardiness

Put his hands to the sky

And says, what can I do with a girl

If she refuses to be mine?

In his bed I am queen, unobtainable me

Sexual being, human with feelings

The two are not me

The two will not be mine.

And what can you do with a girl,

If she refuses to be mine?

Put his hand on my shirt

Hand on my face,

Head to the wall

When you've broken your only doll

And what will you do with a girl

If she refuses to be alive?

And you've broken your only doll

And what will you do with a girl

If she's refusing to be alive?

There's a house across the river

But alas I cannot swim

And a garden of such beauty

That the flower seem to grin

There's a house across the river

But alas I cannot swim

I live my life regretting

That I never jumped in

There's a boy across the river

With short black curly hair

He wants to be my lover

And I want to be his peer

There's a boy across the river

But alas I cannot swim

Now never will I get to put

My arms around him

There's a life across the river

That was meant for me

Instead I live my life

in constant misery

There's a life across the river

But I do not see

Why I should please those

Who will never be pleased

There is gold across the river

But I don't want none

There is gold across the river

But I don't want none

Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle

Gold is fun

Gold is fleeting, gold is fickle

Gold is fun

There is gold across the river

But I don't want none

I would rather be tried

Then held up by a gold gun

Saying work more, earn more

Live more, have more fun

Saying work more, earn more

Live more, have more fun

Saying work more, earn more

Live more, have more fun
