Your Only Doll (Dora)

I fell into the street, poison in my veins Clamber 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 shirt) Hand on my face (Hand on my face) Head to the wall (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 flowers seem to grin There's a house across the river But alas, I cannot swim I'll 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 I never will 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 dry than held up by a golden gun Saying work more, earn morn, 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
