Lyrics

Living Doll

From St. Anne de Beaupre down the Cap de la Madelaine
Up and down the waterway was as far as she'd ever been
so she finished at the beauty school, packed her bags for Montreal
Spent all her money on designer jeans
But man, she looked like a living doll

chorus:
LIVING DOLL, PRETTY AS A PICTURE
LIVING DOLL, LIKE THE COVER ON A MAGAZINE
LIVING DOLL, A WALKING ADVERTISEMENT
LIVING DOLL, LIVING IN A DREAM

She got a flat in the Rue de Fal with a manicurist from Quebec
Worked 8 to 5 in the hotel shop for a hundred?fifty dollar check
Back in St. Anne, she was a beauty queen, down here no one ever calls
Started hangin' out in the singles bars
With all the other living dolls

?chorus?

Spent her lunch money on a new wardrobe, said her old clothes were gettin' tight
Sometimes she'd have a date for dinner ah but she never could eat a bite
Then sometimes at night she'd go real crazy, start eatin' everything in sight
But she couldn't keep it down or wouldn't keep it down
It's just her obsession in the middle of the night

One Monday morning on the cross town bus she rode right through her stop
Two hours later when the drivers changed they told her she had to get off
She looked perfect, not a hair out of place but her eyes didn't see at all
And she never got off that crosstown bus
But man, she looked like a living doll

?chorus?
