Amy In The White Coat

Lyrics

You take your clothes off right after school
 The tea is on, the flame is blue
 And you hope it won't take all afternoon
 The TV's waiting to talk to you
 It's your naked body on white velour
 There's no feeling, just wait on you
 But you get nauseous now as he speaks to you
 Such proper language for act so cruel
 He says, "We all follow the rules
 We can't very well go and break them now, can we?"
 For you, for you
 For you
 Your older sisters, I've had them too
 But you're my favorite, you know it's true
 You look like your mother, in that thin disguise
 Your parting mouth, your shutting eyes
 And the way that you hate me, and the length of your hair
 It's the reason I made you, it's the bond that we share
 You see, we're all trying to endure
 You could easily go and make your own life somewhere
 Couldn't you, couldn't you?
 Couldn't you, couldn't you, couldn't you, couldn't you, couldn't you?
 With the sun you rise
 And you keep your eyes shut
 If your alarm clock lies
 Get to school on time
 Where you're a bag of warm fluid
 Where you're the corpse in the class
 You walk so near to the lockers
 You lay so low in the grass
 Did you get that cut from the principal?
 Did you get that bruise on the bus?
 You should wash your hair more
 You should look more like us
 I saw you walking once under powder blue skies
 You looked cold still, your color was high
 And I tried to talk to you, but you walked right by
 I don't know which I said then, hello or goodbye
 And yet we're all trying to be pure
 But it isn't a very easy thing now, is it?
 To do, to do
 To do, to do
 To do
 To do
 Isn't it, isn't it, isn't it, isn't it?
 Isn't it, isn't it, isn't it, isn't it?
