Troublemaker Doppelgänger

Lyrics

Is that a hearse or a limousine?
 It's like I've seen it on the TV screen, oh-oh
 She had the body of a beauty queen
 Put on a pedestal for good hygiene, oh-oh
 I saw a girl that looked like you
 And I wanted to tell everyone to run away from her
 Run away, run away!
 It couldn't have been you but she had your eyes
 Made for faking smiles and turning tides
 Hands full of young men wrapped around her finger
 
 ♪
 They made you a throne out of magazines
 They made you a crown out of peonies, oh-oh
 She grew up as the pretty young thing
 Let them look up her skirt on the backyard swing
 Oh no...
 Daddy told you to stay indoors
 And I can understand how a girl gets bored
 Too old to play and too young to mess around
 She was a victim of the same disease
 That's roaming the streets and bites when it please
 And makes us wanna live forever or die in infamy
 ♪
 I wanna live in a world where I can keep my eye doors wide open
 But who knows what'd get in and what'd get out
 One of these nights, I'll sleep with the windows down
 But not until that creature's in the pound
 ♪
 No child is born knowing there's an ugly or evil thing
 When did my folks stop covering my eyes?
 ♪
 Was it my brother who taught me about jealousy?
 Was it my sister who taught me about vanity?
 Was it that girl, that beautiful girl
 Thirsty for love and eager for attention
 Was it that girl who taught me about destruction?
 ♪
 I wanna live in a world where I can keep my eye doors wide open
 But who knows what'd get in and what'd get out?
