China dolls lyrics

Don't be so hard on yourself

You gave it all you had

It's something inside you

Petrified you

Try not to feel so bad

Don't be so hard on yourself

The game is cruel and tough

You had a straight

And a couple of aces

But it wasn't quite enough

[Chorus]

That's the way it goes

Some you win and some you don't

Some you sing and hearts get broke

Like china dolls, like china dolls

Delicate and beautiful

Look at their purple, look at their purple eyes

Your stepfather's on the phone

He wants to know if you're coming home

He's sick of you always getting stoned

With your china dolls

And your china dolls

Delicate and beautiful

Don't be so hard on yourself

We know that you tried

Gave 'em some love

And a couple of doves

But they didn't wanna fly

[Chorus]

And that's the way it goes

Some they fill your heart and soul

Some they treat you so damn cold

Like china dolls, like china dolls

Delicate and beautiful

Look at their devil, look at their devil eyes

The police are on the phone

They want to know if you're coming home

God, I wish that your mother had never sold

Those china dolls, those china dolls

Delicate and beautiful

Oh, your china dolls and your china dolls

China doll, oh china dolls
