Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls.

She takes just like a woman. Yes she does
She makes love just like a woman. Yes she does
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl.

Queen Mary, she's my friend.
Yes, I believe I'll go see her again.
Nobody has to guess that Baby can't be blessed
'Till she finally sees that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines, and her pearls.

She takes just like a woman. Yes
She makes love just like a woman. Yes she does
And she aches just like a woman.
But she breaks just like a little girl.

It was raining from the first, and I was dying of thirst,
So I came in here.
And your long-time curse hurts, but what's worse
Is this pain in here.
I can't stay in here.
Ain't it clear that?

I just can't fit.
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit.
When we met again, introduced as friends
Please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world.

You fake just like a woman. Yes you do
You make love just like a woman. Yes you do
Then you ache just like a woman.
But you break just like a little girl.
