Wind her up and watch her go.
Her porcelin legs twirl and her hair's all a flow.
Three turns should do it, you know how you get bored.
Then she'll lay back down, a trophy of how you cared...
you cared...
until the spring wore out.
Your wind up doll...
Your everything, your all.
But only when you want,
Otherwise she gathers dust.
It's been a while now...her paint is chipped and worn.
Her joints are stiff and her dress is torn.
But still you keep her there and tell everyone you care.
And from her glass box she can only wait and stare.
She waits...
But you still turn your head.
Your wind up doll...
Dances only to your song.
They all just shake their heads.
She's never listened to a word they said.
She's his wind up doll.
Prettiest little girl anyone's saw.
But her eyes are fixed to the back of his head,
Ignored everything anyone's said. (...said...said)
They said:
"Sweetie, his touch will blind you.
Honey, his words will bind you.
Baby, don't play the fool.
Don't wait around and let him rule."
Did she listen?
No, she didn't.
Day in and day out she waits for you.
For you...
To wind her spring.
Your wind up doll...
Your everything, your all.
But only when you want,
Otherwise she gathers dust.
