She sat in the attic, Playing with dolls made of plastic Pretending, they were real, Moms bruised up, Dads drunk from his glass cup And Pain, is all she can feel, Her doll house is a perfect place Doll mom doesn't cry, no bruises on her plastic face, And doll dad doesn't hit plastic mother Plastic baby never cries, Fake mom sings lullabys And the little girl is loved like no other, There are no holes in the walls The doll mom, doesn't lie about falls And plastic dad is always sober, But now dark is here Bed time is near And play time sadly, is over

Dolls
She sat in the attic, Playing with dolls made of plastic Pretending, they were real, Moms bruised up, Dads drunk from his glass cup And Pain, is all she can feel, Her doll house is a perfect place Doll mom doesn't cry, no bruises on her plastic face, And doll dad doesn't hit plastic mother Plastic baby never cries, Fake mom sings lullabys And the little girl is loved like no other, There are no holes in the walls The doll mom, doesn't lie about falls And plastic dad is always sober, But now dark is here Bed time is near And play time sadly, is over
