Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand here in the rain
Everybody knows that baby`s got new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls
Oh, she takes just like a woman
Yes she does
And she makes love just like a woman
Yes she does
And she aches just like a woman
Yeah, but she breaks just like a little girl
Mary, she`s my friend
Yes, I believe I`ll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can`t be blessed
`Til she finally sees that she`s like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines and her pearls
chorus
It was rainin from the first
I was dyin of thirst
So I came in here
And your longtime curse
Hurts but what`s worse
Is this pain in here
I can`t stay in here
Ain`t it clear
I just can`t fit
Yes, I believe it`s time for us to quit
When we meet again, introduced as friends
Please don`t let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world
chorus
