Lyrics
I I've grown just like a nesting doll inside I'm just a child all my ability to reason is something I've imagined I washed my mouth out with soap until it spoke only poetry I'm leaving now to live on a cloud I won't see roads or buildings, women or children I won't see cars or men only oceans and land the cars and the men are too loud year after year I wear a new, a new veneer a brand new shell that tells my age permanent smile put on with paint look at you, look at you growing older, growing older all the time look at you, look at you learning nothing, thinking nothing nothing new look at you, look at you nesting doll, completely hollow through and through
