Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand here in the rain
Everybody knows that baby's got
new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls
Oh, she takes just like a woman
Yes she does
And she makes love just like a woman
Yes she does
And she aches just like a woman
Yeah, but she breaks just like a
little girl
Mary, she's my friend
Yes, I believe I'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can't be blessed
'Til she finally sees that she's like all
the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines and her pearls
chorus
It was
rainin from the first
I was dyin of thirst
So I came in here
And your longtime
curse
Hurts but what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't
it clear
I just can't fit
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
When we
meet again, introduced as friends
Please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry
and it was your world
