baby jane

[Intro: Sewerperson]
I got a doll of me up in the attic, untouched
I look the same
And once you hear that name, who you thinkin' of?
It's baby Jane
But Daddy never loved you enough to get the part, hun (Huh)
(tiedforsilver-tiedforsilver)
Sis had never championed you the way you want, huh?

[Verse 1: Sewerperson]
Crippled by a car, said to have you at the wheel last
That was the fork, it changed the whole path
Whistles into buzzing beckon you to where the weak lay
And they better see you with a full tray
So eat until you can't, 'cause the last of it came
Now the birds and the rats from the cellar line the buffet
This is showing mercy in a cold way
And I know you would hurt me if you could, babe
Blanche, and Jane, and Mom, and Dad, it's lovely
The house was left the same, aside from dusting
Nothing left to say between the siblings
But plenty left to do in terms of trusting
Oh, the bird is caged as Blanche is sat, decayed
Even notes of scrawled requests to come and save you have ended up in hands that birth you pain
The memories you held together break you

[Verse 2: Sewerperson]
So stay a while, or stay the night
Young man, I beg you to shelter me
From the wicked, from myself
I've never known the sin I feel inside of me
And I'll be quiet, I'll be quelled
As soon as you proclaim me a deity
In your eyes, I'm unwell
But stars are never perfect, are we?

[Chorus: Sewerperson]
I got a doll of me up in the attic, untouched
I look the same
And once you hear that name, who you thinkin' of?
It's baby Jane
But daddy never loved you enough to get the part, hun (Huh)
Sis had never championed you the way you want, huh?

[Outro: Bette Davis, Joan Crawford]
What do you want this time?
Who was on the telephone?
It's none of your business, what were you ringing for?
I'm hungry, Jane
Well, of course you're hungry, you didn't eat your dinner
That's why you're hungry
But you forgot my breakfast
I didn't forget your breakfast, I didn't bring the breakfast
Because you didn't eat your din-din
Hah
