The Dresden Dolls - The Point Of It All lyrics

oh, what a noble distiguished collection of fine little friends you have made hitting the tables without you again, no, we'll wait, no, we promise we'll wait june makes these excellent sewing machines out of common industrial waste she spends a few months at a time on the couch but she's safe--she wears shades, she wears shades oh, but no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my baby doll and you're aces for playing along you're only human even now and you're learning that just 'cause they call themselves friends doesn't mean they'll call they made the comment in jest but you've got the needle i guess that's the point of it all maybe a week in the tropics would help to remind you how nice life can be we propped you right up in a chair on the deck with a beautiful view of the sea but a couple days later we came back and you and the chair were nowhere to be seen you had magically moved to the closet, eyes fixed on the place where the dryer had been ah, but no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my baby doll and you're aces for playing along youre almost human even now why on earth would I keep you locked up in here when you so love the fall? well, the pattern's laid out on the bed with dozens of colors of thread but you've got the needle i guess that's the point in the end it's better to waste your life watching the scenery change at a comatose rate then to put yourself in and turn into one of those cigarette ads that you hate and while you were sleeping, some men came 'round and said they had some dimensions to take i'm not sure what they were talking about, but they sure made a mess of your face ah, but no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my baby doll and you're aces for coming along, you're almost human even now and just cause they call themself experts, it doesn't mean sweet f** all oh, they've got the permanent press and homes with a stable address and they've got excitement and life by the fistful but you've got the needle i guess that's the point of it all
