The Dresden Dolls - A Night At the roses lyrics

you should see yourself when will you grow up every knob you twist on that machine is like a crutch but i was just the fool you've been waiting for who says we can't touch ourselves to keep from getting bored? nothing else is touching that's for sure a ring around the roses i will watch you play i come here every night it's just me the bartender the waitress and the lights shining on you not getting it right we clap not for you but for your kind a ring around the roses everybody poses threats and then backs down the second you put clothes on a ring around the roses everybody knows it i will sing your fears if you sing my neurosis you should back out now not a night too soon i'll still be here when the last poor soul has left the room standing round just like a good friend should smiling as if your songs were good a ring around the roses everybody poses threats and then backs down the second you get clothes on a ring around the roses everybody knows it i will sing your fears if you sing my neurosis and i sat there for hours waiting on the curb thinking you might like a flower from a pretty girl a ring around the waitress from the verse a ring of fire around the roses' door put it on before you lose your nerve put your hands together and they'll hurt (repeats five times) make your sound that no one's ever heard (repeats twice) and i hope we get what we deserve
