Bright Eyes - Amy In The White Coat lyrics

You take your clothes off

Right after school

The tea is on

The flame is blue

And you hope it won't take

All afternoon

The TV's waiting

To talk to you

It's your naked body

On white velour

But there's no feeling

Just weight on you

But you get nauseous now

As he speaks to you

Such proper language

For acts so cruel

He says "we all follow the rules

We can't very well go and break them now can we?

For you, for you, for you..

Your older sisters,

I had them too,

But you're my favorite

You know it's true.

You look like your mother

In that thin disguise

Your parting mouth,

Your shining eyes.

And the way that you hate me

And the length of your hair

It's the reason I make you

It's the bond that we share

Cos you were all trying to endure it

You could easily go and make your own life somewhere

Couldn't you? Couldn't you? Couldn't you, couldn't you, couldn't you, couldn't you, couldn't you?"

With the sun beams bright

You keep your eyes shut

Your alarm clock lies

Get to school on time

But you're a bag of warm fluid

You're the coarpse in the class

You walk so near to your locker

You lay so low in the grass

Did you get that coat from the principal?

Did you get that bruise on the bus?

You should wash your hair more

You should look more like us.

But I saw you walking once

Under powder blue skies

You looked cold still

Your collar was high

And I tried to talk to you

But you walked right by

I don't know which I said then,

"Hello" or "Goodbye"

And yet we're all trying to be pure

But it isn't a very easy thing, now is it?

To do, To do, To do, To do, To do, To do

Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it, Isn't it?
