Baby Doll

She stops and checks her reflection

In a car parked on the corner

She says, "It's hell on me

Working down at the diner"

Some people say, "Man she was hot

Back when she was younger"

Yeah well, she was a dancer

When she lived in LA

Well she was someone's baby doll

A beauty queen to someone long ago

For the midnight show

And if you close your eyes

You can hear the music playing

You can see her dancing

Underneath the spotlight

And when she sleeps

She dreams she's back in Hollywood

Back when all the world was young

She was someone's baby doll

She stops and checks her reflection

In the bathroom on her lunch break

She says, "I still look good

For someone half of my real age"

Some people say, "Man I bet she still

Makes love like an earthquake"

Yeah but man, she ain't easy

She ain't lettin' you in my friend, my friend

It's time to wake up baby doll

Put your best dress and your high heels on

And dream you're gone

And if you close your eyes

You can hear the music playing

You can see her dancing

Underneath the spotlight

She stops and calls an old friend

From the pay phone at the subway

She says, "I feel like I'm just sitting here

Wasting my days away"

It's time to move on baby doll

And walk away just like you did before

When you wanted more

When you close your eyes

You can hear the music playing

You can see her dancing

Underneath the spotlight

And when she sleeps

She dreams she's back in Hollywood

When she was a younger girl

A pretty heart in a tainted world

Not sure who you want to be

You're daddy's little drama queen

I hope that when you find yourself

You're more than just a baby doll
