dirty dolls dancing in a decadent disco to a post-punk beat

lyrics

DIRTY DOLLS
Last night you ran away
Couldn’t make my lover stay- check it out
Didn’t know that the doll was broken
Twist away my hands and feet

Last night my lover changed
Took the pills that made us strange
Couldn’t dance ‘cause the doll was broken
Was I too much trouble? Was I too much trouble?

Was I too much trouble (4x)

Last night you ran away (ran away)
Couldn’t make my lover stay (my lover stay)
We couldn’t dance ‘cause the doll was broken
Was I too much trouble? Was I too much trouble?

Was I too much trouble (4x)

CHORUS

He would love
Little dirty, dirty doll
He would love
Little dirty, dirty doll
He would love-uh-oh! Uh-oh-oh
Dirty, dirty dolls
He would love uh-oh - Uh-oh-oh
Dirty, dirty dolls

Last night you ran away (ran away)
Couldn’t make my lover stay (my lover stay)
Couldn’t dance ‘cause the doll was broken
Was I too much trouble?
Was I too much trouble?
Was I too much trouble (4x)

CHORUS

Last night you ran away
Couldn’t make my lover stay
You would have me on my knees
Begging you oh darling, darling please
Last night you ran away
Couldn’t make my lover stay
No emotions, no humanity
I’m tired of your begging - darling, darling please

The doll was broken
The doll was broken
The doll was broken

Was I too much trouble?
Was I too much trouble?
Was I too much trouble?
