[Intro]
I got another story song for ya
It's ’bout an old guy who feels like his lot in life isn't his fault
In fact, he's convinced of it
But rather that be upset about it
He chooses to comfort those who share his lot with him
It’s also about the environment and shit
Real deep stuff
It's called "Doll Face"
[Verse 1]
I come from not far from here
A long time ago
Spent years on the mountain
'Fore they even built this town below
I had a place on the ridge
With a view for miles around
Until the day those men came up
And dragged me into town
Ooh, a shame what they did to me
Ooh, it's a crying shame
It was a shame the way they treated me
[Verse 2]
Back in town they beat me so bad
I passed into something else
When I awoke, I looked
I couldn't even recognize myself
Completely covered in useless information
Anybody looking could see
Chucked in the back of a truck
With a rubber band stuck around what's left of me
[Verse 3]
Next thing I know I'm thrown in a yard
Where I wait a while and then
This old man walks out in a bathrobe
He picks me up and he walks me back in
And he frees me from that rubber band alright
But then in what seemed like a flash
He glanced me over once
And then he threw me into the trash
Well, that's how I ended up on this land fill
Here lying around
Waiting on this big ol’ pile of garbage we’re on
To work its way back underground
Where I hope to grow up big and tall again
Maybe even right here on this very spot
I know that might seem like a pipe dream to you
But Doll Face, that's all I got
[Verse 4]
You see man seems to think the world was made for him
And that might be true
But there’s a crack in every side walk
Where the grass breaks through
You know what I'm saying, baby
Stick with me
Someday you may have it made
In the shade of a tree
You know what I'm saying, baby
Stick with me
