(John Hiatt)
|
|
She paints her fingernails forbidden tones
|
She wants nervous youth on the telephone
|
He don't call
|
She sticks another pin
|
In her doll
|
And puts it next to her stuffed animals
|
|
She got the tube top
|
She got the french heels
|
She got the blow dry
|
She got her eyes peeled
|
She got the tight jeans
|
Seventeen magazine
|
She got it all
|
She got it all
|
She got it all
|
In her pink bedroom
|
|
She thinks all her boyfriends are so dumb
|
She drinks coca-cola with valium
|
Mother calls
|
She sticks another pin
|
In her doll
|
And lets those fingers talk her into it
|
|
She got the lip gloss
|
She got the short shorts
|
She got her records
|
And they're all imports
|
She got her good looks
|
She got her yearbook
|
She got it all
|
She got it all
|
She got it all
|
In her pink bedroom
|
|
They say they got her future down at the desk
|
Now they're drawing blood for the grown-up test
|
Something crawls
|
Beneath her lily skin
|
And her doll
|
Is so relieved she's lost her innocence
|
|
It was a teen game
|
Now we're serious
|
It's all customised
|
Don't get curious
|
She got her pension
|
And your attention
|
She got it all
|
She got it all
|
She got it all
|
In her pink bedroom
|
