Melanie Martinez — Dollhouse

Dollhouse

Hey girl,
open the walls, play with your dolls.
We'll be a perfect family.
 
When you walk away,
is when we really play.
You don't hear me when I say:
 
"Mom, please wake up.
Dad's with a slut,
and your son is smoking cannabis."
 
No one ever listens, this wallpaper glistens
Don't let them see what goes down in the kitchen.
 
(Chorus)
Places, places, gather your places
Throw on your dress and put on your doll faces.
 
Everyone thinks that we're perfect.
Please don't let them look through the curtains.
 
Picture, picture, smile for the picture
Pose with your brother, won't you be a good sister?
 
Everyone thinks that we're perfect
Please don't let them look through the curtains.
 
D-O-L-L-H-O-U-S-E
I see things that nobody else sees.
 
Hey girl,
look at my mom, she's got it going on.
Ha! You're blinded by her jewellery.
 
When you turn your back,
she pulls out a flask,
and forgets his infidelity.
 
Uh-oh, she's coming to the attic.
Plastic.
Go back to being plastic.
 
No one ever listens, this wallpaper glistens
One day they'll see what goes down in the kitchen.
 
(Chorus)
 
Hey girl (5x)
 
Hey girl,
open your walls, play with your dolls.
We'll be a perfect family.
 
(Chorus)
