MANNEQUIN

Letra y música escritas por Laura Torres

 

You live your life how they told you

touching just the surface

you love who they taught you to

blinded by the stop signs

always prefer to close your eyes and close your mouth up tight

you tie your tie allby

yourself your shoes as well

 

You live like a mannequin

Empty toy

Your cold hands can’t touch me

Plastic boy….

 

So you wanted to move in here

buy a king size bed

have an office, watch TV, buy a little cat

You prefer to waste your money in long distance calls

Your brain is full of cereal and chocolate milk.

 

chorus

 

Walking on for hours always so alone

drowning in the city waiting for your call

I wanna feel you breathing, I wanna hear you scream

I wanna see you dancing, dancing on the Street.

 

You pretend to be my lover

you pretend to be my man

you pretend to miss me so much

you pretend to hold my hand

your frozen heart wears leather

your lips are petrified

Without any religion

you don’t remember why

 

chorus… ooooy
