The Girl with the Patent Leather Face Songtext

von Soft Cell

Look, she's here again

The girl with the patent leather face
Tears pictures out of magazines

Looks longingly at makeup ads
And glossy spreads of beauty queens

The girl with the patent
Leather face
Sits in a darkened bedsit gloom
She chains her door, squats on the floor
Lets
No one into her room

Two faced baby
Shiny baby
Two faced baby
Shiny baby

You can laugh,
Point at me
They do it all the time
But how would you like it if you had
A face like mine

The
Girl with the patent leather face
Is a psychopathic mental case
A target for the freaks and creeps

A reject of the human race

The girl with the patent leather face
Hangs around the mutant
Bars
She tampers with machinery
So other beauties crash their cars

Two faced baby
Shiny,
Shiny, shiny, shiny baby
Two faced baby

You can laugh, point at me
They do it all the time

But how would you like it if you had
A face like mine

The girl with the patent leather face

Tears pictures out of magazines
Looks longingly at makeup ads
And glossy spreads of beauty
Queens

The girl with the patent leather face
Sits in a darkened bedsit gloom
She chains
Her door, squats on the floor
Lets no one into her room

I'm alone and she's alone
And we should
Get together
I'll never ask you to remove
Your mask of shiny
Patent leather
Patent leather

If you kiss me
Kiss me

You can laugh, point at me
They do it all the time
But how would you
Like it if you had
A face like mine

Had a
Face like mine
Had a face like mine
If you kiss
Me, kiss me
Kiss me, kiss me
Shiny baby
With your lips of
Patent leather
And your cold,
Cold eyes
