Paper Dolls (Original)

In which Becki (Band name: All Young Girls Are Machine Guns) performs the first song she's written on her ukulele while giving you a tour of her bathroom. Woo!

Lyrics as follow:

All young girls are machine guns
They can't tell you but they know it, too
Dance around and lift their skirts
Take your attention so no one stands a chance
And I know it's over

Chorus:
Blow away paper dolls
That's not how it works anymore
Blow away paper dolls
No use in pretending it all away

Every man's his own Humbert Humbert
Chasing Lolita and she knows it, too
Better watch out or you'll get hurt
Turn around before you do it, too
Yeah I know it's over

Burn your notes don't share your stories
Save your confessions for another day
Or I can tell you just what you're in store for
And run, run Lolita, run, run away
And let it be over

2nd Chorus:
Blow away paper dolls
All the lines have faded
There's no way to tell for sure
But you'll probably be okay

Hey! I was at Fine Lines Camp when you performed. Can't wait to look for your cd!

I really enjoyed your creativity.

Did you know the Futurist Marinetti wrote a one ballerina piece called Dance of the Machine Gun? I wonder about the connection here..!

I look forward to seeing the rest of your videos.

Cheers.
