Encore eux, je les adore!!! The Dresden Dolls: "Truce"

Encore eux, je les adore!!! The Dresden Dolls: "Truce"
You can have Washington I'll take New Jersey
You can have London but I want New York city

I should get Providence I've got a job now
Los Angeles - obvious - that's where you belong now

You can have Africa, Asia, Australia
As long as you keep your hands off cafe pamplona

We can split germany right down the middle
Y
ou'd hate it there anyway
Take berlin and we'll call it even

You can have all of the carry-on baggage
I'll trade the saskia jokes for the alphabet language

On special occasions we'll split between parents
who forced us to hate them on alternating weekends

You call it over and I call you psycho
significant other? just say we were lovers!
And we'll call it even, we'll call it even.

I am the ground zero ex-friend you ordered
Disgused as a hero to get past your borders
I
know when I'm wanted I'll leave if you ask me to
Mind my own business and speak when I'm spoken to

I am the tower around which you orbited
I am not proud, I am just taking orders
I fall to the ground within hours of impact
I hit back when hit and attack when attacked!

You get route 2 between concord and lexington
I want mass ave from the sqaure to my apartment

And if we should meet through some misunderstanding
I'll be very sweet very patient and forgiving
(now get off my side of the state)

And if we should see one another in passing
Aespite these techniques there is sometimes no avoiding
(there must be some kind of mistake)

We'll raise high our white flags and bow heads and shake hands
Declaring the land we're on unamerican
We'll call it even

I am the tower around which you orbited
I am not proud I am just taking orders
I fall to the groud within hours of impact
I hit back when hit
and attack if attacked

I am an accident waiting to happen
I'm laughing like mad as you strangle the captain
My place may be taken, but make no mistake
F
rom a little black box I can say without shame
That you've lost
Do you know what you've lost?

So take whatever you'd like
I'll strike like the States on fire
You won't sleep very tight
N
o hiding
No safe covers
M
ake your bed and now lie
Just like you always do
You can fake it for the papers but I'm on to you....

The Dresden Dolls: "Coin-Operated Boy"

Coin operated boy
Sitting on the shelf he is just a toy
But i turn him on and he comes to life
Automatic joy
That is why i want a coin operated boy

Made of plastic and elastic
He is rugged and long-lasting
Who could ever ever ask for more
Love without complications galore
Many shapes and weights to choose from
I will never leave my bedroom
I will never cry at night again
Wrap my arms around him and pretend....

Coin operated boy
All the other real ones that i destroy
Cannot hold a candle to my new boy and i'll
Never let him go and i'll never be alone
Not with my coin operated boy......

This bridge was written to make you feel smittener
W
ith my sad picture of girl getting bitterer
C
an you extract me from my plastic fantasy
I didnt think so but im still convinceable
Will you persist even after i bet you
A billion dollars that i'll never love you
Will you persist even after i kiss you
Goodbye for the last time
Will you keep on trying to prove it?
I'm dying to lose it...
I want it
I
want you
I want a coin operated boy.

And if i had a star to wish on
For my life i cant imagine
Any flesh and blood could be his match
I can even take him in the bath

Coin operated boy
H
e may not be real experienced with girls
But i know he feels like a boy should feel
Isnt that the point that is why i want a
Coin operated boy
With his pretty coin operated voice
Saying that he loves me that hes thinking of me
Straight and to the point
That is why i want
A
coin operated boy.
