Belle And Sebastian Belle And Sebastian

Wax Doll, Sound Doll

I'm a wax doll
A sound doll
My heart is etched in my songs
Wax doll, sound doll

Am I better, am I worse
Than a parlor doll?
I see life in cotton candy pink
Wax doll, sound doll

My records are a mirror
In which everyone can see me
I'm everywhere at once
Shattered into a thousand voices

Around me, I hear laughter
From the rag dolls
Those who dance to my songs
Wax doll, sound doll

They let themselves be seduced
For a yes or a no
Love isn't just in the songs
Wax doll, sound doll

My records have a mirror
In which everyone can see me
I'm everywhere at once
Shattered into a thousand voices

Sometimes alone, I sigh
I ask myself what's the point
Singing about love without reason
Without knowing anything about boys

I'm just a wax doll
Just a sound doll
Under the sun of my blonde hair
Wax doll, sound doll

But one day I'll live my songs
Wax doll, sound doll

Without fearing the heat of boys
Wax doll, sound doll.
