Dresden Dolls: The point of it all

Oh, what a noble, distinguished collectionOf fine little friends you have madeHitting the tables without you againNo, we'll wait, no, we promise we'll waitAnd June makes these excellent sewing machines out of carbon industrial wasteShe spends a few months at a time on the couchBut she's fine, she wears shades, she wears shadesBut no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my babydollAnd your race is for playing alongYou're almost human after allAnd you're learning that just cause they call themselves friends doesn't mean they'll callThey made the comment in jestBut you've got the needleI guess that's the point of it allMaybe a week in the tropics will help to remind you how nice life can beWe propped you right up in a chair on the deck with a beautiful view of the seaA couple days later we came back and you and the chair were nowhere to be seenYou had magically moved to the closetEyes fixed to the spot where the dryer had beenOh yes, no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my babydollAnd your race is for coming alongYou're almost human after allWhy on earth would I keep you propped up in here when you so love the fall?The pattern's laid out on the bedWith dozens of colours of threadBut you've got the needleI guess that's the point of it allIt's better to waste your day watching the scenery change at a comatose rateThan to put yourself in it and turn into one of those cigarette ads that you hateBut while you were sleeping some men came aroundAnd they said had dimensions to takeI'm not sure what they were talking aboutBut they sure made a mess of your faceBut still no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my babydollAnd your race is for coming alongYou're almost human, even nowAnd just cause they say that they're experts doesn't mean sweet fuck allThey've got the permanent pressAnd homes with a stable addressAnd they've got excitementAnd life by the fistfulBut you've got the needleI guess that's the point of it all
