She was looking good, she was a beautiful girl from a tenth generation American dream world,
To look at her you would never guess that she could hurt so bad in such a beautiful dress, 'cause'
One ' she had the perfect smile,
Two ' she'd been the perfect child,
Three ' she looked as if she had it all,
She was a living doll.
She'd been looking around for a new situation beyond sex and short-term stimulation,
'Cause everyone she'd ever known had treated her like she was something they owned, so'
One ' she played the little girl,
Two ' she was afraid of the whole wide world,
Three ' she felt so helpless and so small,
Felt like a living doll.
She'd never been given a minute of love unless she met the conditions,
And it made her so mad that her heart froze up, and the pain turned into a prison.
It was a miracle when she came to life, when true love cut through the pain like a knife,
Now when the coast is clear and the past is buried, who knows'
She might even get married.
One ' she kind of met this guy,
Two '.he ain't perfect, but he's alright,
Three ' now she can't wait for him to call,
Four ' he kind of likes her too,
Five ' she ain't perfect, but he says she'll do,
Six ' he keeps her picture on the wall, (seven, eight)
'Cause he thinks she's a living doll.
