Doll from First Offence by The Smoke

Doll

They have a doll that looks like me
it sits on top of the broken tv

Watches me while I sleep.
One of it's button eyes is missing

There's a cat that eats my songs
and rips up my important papers

Scratches me all night long
- doing his best to make me feel better

I've been trying to avoid attention
- they're looking in my direction

They're sneaking an innocent peek in
like getting stabbed with an icicle

The little dog pees on my knees
and interrupts the dinner things

I've been pouting about it all week
never thought I might feel so beleaguered

I just wanted to get my haircut
but the shop is shut and I'm all mussed up

They're sneaking an innocent peek in
like getting stabbed with an icicle

Down in the basement, many headless bodies
The cat eats my songs and interrupts my business letters

Calms me with his claws
- just wants to make me feel better

I've been trying to avoid attention
they're looking in my direction

Sneaking an innocent peek in
like getting stabbed with an icicle

There's a doll wearing my dress
And a dog, yes I'm very upset

A little doll wearing my face
And a dog. It's a disgrace

And as I lay smouldering
under the baleful eye of the me doll.
