You've been a bad girl
You're not a girl anymore
Deep in a picture show
Unbuttoned in the last row
You watched the grown-ups win the war
Now that they've got you where they want you
You're just combin' your hair
The alteration's done,but you're havin' way too much fun
They want to touch you but you just don't care
Take off your uniform
They see what they want to see
You should have never been born
You'd better stay with me
Your replacement
Waits in the basement
They've got her down to your smile
She writes those letters too
She thinks she's better than you
She says you're just a foolish child
They got her smilin' while she's dialing
She's such a clever machine
She'd fit in anywhere, now that her vision's impaired
She listens up, but she don't know what they mean
Take off your uniform
They see what they want to see
You should have never been born
You'd better stay with me
Everyone's happy with your daily activities
They like that tone in your voice
Now that you're finally an adult in america
You're too dumb to have a choice
Take off your uniform
They see what they want to see
You should have never been born
Take off your uniform
They see what they want to see
You should have never been born
You'd better stay with me
You've been a good girl You've been a bad girl You're not a girl anymore Deep in a picture show Unbuttoned in the last row You watched the grown-ups win the war Now that they've got you where they want you You're just combin' your hair The alteration's done,but you're havin' way too much fun They want to touch you but you just don't care Take off your uniform They see what they want to see You should have never been born You'd better stay with me Your replacement Waits in the basement They've got her down to your smile She writes those letters too She thinks she's better than you She says you're just a foolish child They got her smilin' while she's dialing She's such a clever machine She'd fit in anywhere, now that her vision's impaired She listens up, but she don't know what they mean Take off your uniform They see what they want to see You should have never been born You'd better stay with me Everyone's happy with your daily activities They like that tone in your voice Now that you're finally an adult in america You're too dumb to have a choice Take off your uniform They see what they want to see You should have never been born Take off your uniform They see what they want to see You should have never been born You'd better stay with me Explain Request ×
