The Dresden Dolls - Dear Jenny lyrics

rate me

boys wear overcoats in heat like this to keep themselves from showing

girls fill out prescriptions for the tricks that keep their hearts from growing

specialists review the year in tears and call for drastic measures

send them to resorts for boys and girl to get their shit together

sad but true the facts of life are bound to get you down

so whats the use dear jenny anyway the world is pretty...

ashley talks to astronauts back home by way of fax transmission

andy gets a new tattoo each time he gets back bathroom privledge

weary o so drealiy we wave our flags into the camera

amber goes berserk completely she's been here since last december

sad but true the truth can turn your smile to a frown

so whats the use dear jenny anyway the world is pretty

upside-down...

the rates are better in the summer

looks like dear jenny's doing better...

back at home the broadcast warning bounces off of an empty table

jenny asks the astronauts to sleep with her behind the stable

christmas hasn't been the same since dad put in the central heating

checks you before bedtime with a battery to keep your new heart beating

and the world might turn a million times around before

they tell you jenny anyway the world is pretty world is pretty happy world is pretty happy

sometimes they let strangers in and other times they check their records

when they check out in the morning dad puts out the lie detectors

jenny prays to gods she've never heard of for a special warning

all the walls stay dead as jennys heart is

but shes still observing

sad but true the highgloss gloss paint wont tell you what to do

so whats the use dear jenny anyway

the world is happy

world is happy

world is happy without you...

the rates are better in the summer....

looks like old jennys doing better...
