Antique Doll - The Electric Prunes

You have not changed your calendar for a hundred years

You’ve chosen to swim backwards through an ancient sea of tears

Today is not tomorrow but for you it’s yesterday

Your future is your past where you can hide yourself away

Sitting on a lily pad of loneliness

Placing lipstick kisses on the wall

Sharing secret idols with your only-ness

Ooh antique doll antique doll

Painting paper doilies through cold and bitter nights

You think you’re really turning on when you turn on the lights

Your lover is a pillow from a sailor lost at sea

Who wrote his ship went down with him in 1963

Sitting on a lily pad of loneliness

Placing lipstick kisses on the wall

Sharing secret idols with your only-ness

Ooh antique doll antique doll

Your mother seems to wonder if you’re living

Each night she makes you breathe upon a mirror

But there is no living without giving as you

Sit and watch your shadow disappear

Sitting on a lily pad of loneliness

Placing lipstick kisses on the wall

Sharing secret idols with your only-ness

Ooh antique doll antique doll
