Holly and Jessica spoke about this song:
Holly: We wanted to do a spin-off a murder ballad.
Jessica: I think that we just started singing…
Holly: I came up with this little melody, and often times when we’re writing we put words to whatever the melody is and then change them later. But that one jus...
Hey, Doreen Lyrics
These buttons are in the wrong holes again
Let's straighten them out
Let's straighten this whole damn mess we've gotten ourselves in
This time didn't go the way I was hoping
You've gotta get out, I've gotta get out
Keep checking the mirrors, call me as soon as you can
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, can you keep it, can you keep it in?
Hey Doreen, we know what you have seen
It's the way, the way it had to be
Hey Doreen, we know what you have seen
It's the way it had to be
(cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back)
The sun's coming up, did you make it in time?
If anyone asks you
You weren't there I found the perfect alibi
A black dahlia blooms and then she dies
Lie after lie
Is what we do best and share in common, you and I
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, can you keep it, can you keep it in?
Hey Doreen, we know what you have seen
It's the way, the way it had to be
All your plans, just a nickel in her hands
It's the way it had to be
(cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back)
Hey Doreen, we know what you have seen
It's the way it had to be
(cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back)
Mother you can try to find a place to hide
You can try but they'll find me
Mother you can try to find a place to hide
You can try but they'll find me
Mother you can try to find a place to hide
You can try but they'll find me
Oh oh oh oh oh (x5)
Hey Doreen, we know what you have seen
It's the way, the way it had to be
All your plans, just a nickel in her hands
It's the way it had to be
(cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back)
Hey Doreen, we know what you have seen
It's the way it had to be
(cover your tracks, you know you can't take it back)
