"Valley Of The Dolls" lyrics

"Valley Of The Dolls"

Bedroom mirrors do tell who's the fairest of them all
Limelight silhouette transparent attic walls
Dancing shadows cascade paper dolls
Wailing ghost guitars send in the clowns
Send in the clowns

Painted plastic faces stealing mommies make up
Masque the false gods with mannequin smiles
Primadonnas play upon their pedestals of fame
Unborn girls false facade illegitimate child
I won't play your game
Illegitimate child

Blasphemous black bible bias you betray bigotry
Slay the hydra pretty fair maidens spread the leprosy
Hungry children feed from hype of perpetual egos
I slay the hydra, burn the talisman, holocaust

Run with the pack illegitimate child the unborn wench at war
Tears in his eyes she became a bride wedlock to a whore
Shatter the dream the tangerine dream bow to kings not the queens
Go back where you reign, to your domain, The Valley of the Dolls!

Bow to kings of yesterday
They have given you wings to fly away
What have the phantom queens but deceived you
Armies of shadows climbing
Silvery mountains lining
Molten and ask (kiss my ass)

Camouflage the battle scars
With oxy ten and Maybelline
Cloning the heroes in hype magazines
Pirates of underground
Lightning the speed of sound
You will prevail

Bedroom mirrors do tell who's the fairest of them all
Limelight silhouette transparent walls
Dancing shadows cascade paper dolls
Wailing ghost guitars

Run with the pack illegitimate child the unborn wench at war
Tears in his eyes she became a bride wedlock to a whore
Shatter the dream the tangerine dream bow to kings not the queens
Go back where you reign, to your domain, The Valley of the Dolls!
