As a Child

[Verse 1]
As a child
You have a doll
You see this doll
Sitting in her chair
You watch her face
Her knees apart
Her eyes of glass
In a secretive stare

[Chorus]
She seems to
She seems to
She seems to
Have a life
She seems to
She seems to
She seems to
Have a life

[Verse 2]
Pick up a stick
Dig up a crack
Dirt in the street
Becomes a town
All of the people
Depend on you
Not to hurt them
Or bang the stick down

[Chorus]
And they seem to
They seem to
They seem to
Have a life
They seem to
They seem to
They seem to
Have a life

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
As a child
You see yourself
And wonder why
Can't seem to move
Hand on the doorknob
Feel like a thing
One foot on the sidewalk
Too much to prove

[Chorus]
And you learn to
You learn to
You learn to
Have a life
You learn to
You learn to
You learn to
Have a life
