Plastic hand, plastic skin, plastic hair
Perfect smile, perfect stare
Wouldn’t you say we’re the perfect pair?
With her I’m without a care
Freed from your crystal cage, finally mine
Taken from your jailer’s grasp.
It always has been a matter of time
Within my home, I can’t help but gasp
Oh my darling, my darling.
I’ll buy you perfect clothes, they stare
Oh my darling, my darling.
I’ll give you love, I don’t care
I’ll hold you close, we’re homebound
With you, my life’s been found
I know you’ll stay forever
I know you’ll leave me never
“If you touch my body
I would be delighted,
Your endless smile,
makes me enlightened.”
“Your clothes is always fit,
It’s like you’re never a misfit.
You can always smile,
With your plastic teeth.”
Oh my darling, my darling.
Come to bed, it’s time to sleep.
Oh my darling, my darling.
Come closer for your dress I’ll change.
“Why won’t you talk my darling?
You don’t want me to wait too long.
My love for you is tingling,
I can’t wait (oh) no more!”
“My darling let’s dance,
Or I’ll be broken in half.
(Oh) I’ll just go to rest,
By that time I’d just stab myself.”
Oh my darling, my darling.
Come to bed, it’s time to rest.
Oh my darling, my darling.
Come here and I’ll go to sleep.
Oh my darling, my darling
If you speaketh to me not
Oh my darling my darling
My mouth I’ll seal shut
“My darling I’ve given my life to you
I’ll give it up if I must too
I’ll ever stay still, still every part
I gave myself to a mannequin's heart.”
