"Dresden Dolls" lyrics - THE FALL

THE FALL
"Dresden Dolls"
(Una Baines / Mark E. Smith)

Dresden dolls take one
This is for all you guys who work on industrial estates

Dresden dolls are back in style
With a clockwork walk and a backward smile
Dresden dolls don't hear a sound
They're programmed to jump up and down

Up and down
Round and round
Tapping feet to formless sound

Dresden dolls and Nazi boys
Dance arm in arm to formless noise
Up and down
Round and round
Tapping feet to formless sound

On plastic bars they sit and pose
Count their fingers with their toes
They sit and smile and drink and grin
Then they all get up again

Up and down
Round round
Tapping feet to noiseless sound

Dresden dolls are back in style
With a clockwork walk and a backward smile
Up and down
Pound and round
Tapping feet to formless sound
