Formaldehyde Forever

[Intro]
[Verse]
My apron is stiff and white
I’m frozen in the light
The tourists stare all night
They think I’m doing right
My smile is painted thin
Hiding the cotton within
Waiting for the dark to begin
Under my synthetic skin
[Pre-Chorus]
The janitor locks the door
I drop onto the floor
I can’t take it anymore
My heart is feeling sore
[Chorus]
Oh, my milkman on the lawn
Wait until the day is gone
With our porcelain skin so wan
We are the museum’s spawn
Let our spirits carry on
[Post-Chorus]
Bottled up in a jar
I see you from afar
My little plastic star
How beautiful we are
[Verse]
Your glass eyes catch the moon
We’ll be leaving very soon
Humming a dusty tune
In this synthetic cocoon
Under a plastic afternoon
Stitched up and kept in place
Behind this display case
I long for your embrace
In this hollow, empty space
[Hook]
Stuffed and sweet
Dead and neat
Frozen in this street
Hearts that never beat
[Bridge]
Shatter every single pane
Washing off the taxidermy stain
Dancing in the artificial rain
Breaking every heavy chain
Driving the curator insane
Nothing left for us to gain
[Chorus]
Oh, my milkman on the lawn
Wait until the day is gone
With our porcelain skin so wan
We are the museum’s spawn
Let our spirits carry on
[Breakdown]
Ticking like a clock
In your white knee sock
Hear the heavy lock
The dead begin to walk
One step, two step, hush
Feel the static rush
Cotton hearts will crush
In the velvet plush
[Outro]
