“Dollhouse” is about a family that appears to be perfect on the outside looking in, yet it’s far from it. It was later revealed that it serves as a prequel to “Sippy Cup,” in which we find out what goes down in the kitchen.
In “Dollhouse,” her mother is an alcoholic due to her husband’s infidelity,...
[Verse 1]
Hey girl, open the walls
Play with your dolls
We'll be a perfect family
When you walk away is when we really play
You don't hear me when I say
"Mom, please wake up
Dad's with a slut
And your son is smoking cannabis"
[Pre-Chorus]
No one ever listens
This wallpaper glistens
Don't let them see what goes down in the kitchen
[Chorus]
Places, places, get in your places
"Throw on your dress and put on your doll faces"
Everyone thinks that we're perfect
Please don't let them look through the curtains
Picture, picture, smile for the picture
"Pose with your brother, won't you be a good sister?"
Everyone thinks that we're perfect
Please don't let them look through the curtains
[Post-Chorus]
D-O-L-L-H-O-U-S-E
I see things that nobody else sees
(D-O-L-L-H-O-U-S-E)
(I see things that nobody else sees)
[Verse 2]
Hey girl, look at my mom
She's got it going on
Ha, you're blinded by her jewelry
When you turn your back
She pulls out a flask
And forgets his infidelity
Uh oh, she's coming to the attic, plastic
Go back to being plastic
[Pre-Chorus]
No one ever listens
This wallpaper glistens
One day they'll see what goes down in the kitchen
[Chorus]
Places, places, get in your places
"Throw on your dress and put on your doll faces"
Everyone thinks that we're perfect
Please don't let them look through the curtains
Picture, picture, smile for the picture
"Pose with your brother, won't you be a good sister?"
Everyone thinks that we're perfect
Please don't let them look through the curtains
[Post-Chorus]
D-O-L-L-H-O-U-S-E
I see things that nobody else sees
(D-O-L-L-H-O-U-S-E)
(I see things that nobody else sees)
[Breakdown]
Hey girl (Hey girl)
Hey girl, open your walls
Play with your dolls
We'll be a perfect family
[Chorus]
Places, places, get in your places
"Throw on your dress and put on your doll faces"
Everyone thinks that we're perfect
Please don't let them look through the curtains
Picture, picture, smile for the picture
"Pose with your brother, won't you be a good sister?"
Everyone thinks that we're perfect
Please don't let them look through the curtains
[Post-Chorus]
D-O-L-L-H-O-U-S-E
I see things that nobody else sees
(D-O-L-L-H-O-U-S-E)
(I see things that nobody else sees)
