Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Ev’rybody knows
That baby’s got new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls.
She takes just like a womanyesshe does
She makes love just like a womanyesshe does
And she aches just like a woman
Buy she breaks just like a little girl.
Queen maryshe’s my friend
YesI believe I’ll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can’t be blessed
Till she sees finally that she’s like all the rest
With her fogher amphetamine and her pearls.
She takes just like a womanyesshe does
She makes love just like a womanyesshe does
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl.
It was raining from the first
And I was dying there of thirst
So I came in here
And your long-time curse hurts
But what’s worse
Is this pain in here
I can’t stay in here
Ain’t it clear that —
I just can’t fit
YesI believe it’s time for us to quit
When we meet again
Introduced as friends
Please don’t let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world.
Ahyou fake just like a womanyesyou do
You make love just like a womanyesyou do
Then you ache just like a woman
But you break just like a little girl.
