Giving you more of what for

Always worked for me before

Now I'm a shabby doll

What's going on behind the green elevator door

With just a shabby doll



There's a hit man facing

A compromising situation

With just a shabby doll

And a very neat line in character assassination

She's just a shabby doll



She's just a shabby doll

She's putting him off and putting you on

She's just the shabby doll

You're swearing upon you know in your heart

She's gone you know in your heart

She's just a shabby doll



There's a girl in this dress

There's always a girl in distress

She's just a shabby doll

She's so sure she's self-possessed

Then again she's half undressed

She's just a shabby doll



The boy that I used to be

Showed no sign of sympathy

For just a shabby doll

I have betrayed you and me

And paid for my own bribery

With just a shabby doll



(chorus)



He's the tired toy that everyone enjoyed

He wants to be a fancy man but he's nothing but a nancy boy

He's all pride and no joy



And being what you might call a whore

Always worked for me before

Now I'm a shabby doll

Untie the gag the cat's out of the bag

But won't show his claws

He's just a shabby doll



She said you must be joking

Some things are left unspoken

You're just a shabby doll

He's lying limp and soaking

He was openly broken

By just a shabby doll



(chorus)
