playing rapunzel – phantom doll lyrics
[verse: mich sampson]
raggedy ann came out to play
kittened a thin disguise against the day
painted a face across the mask
victim of the looking gl-ss:
store windows are cruel
mannequin charms outshine her own
running away from her reflection home
hanging her head behind the door
sleeping on the kitchen floor
[chorus: mich]
in glorious dreams
she walks outside her skin
her face so fine, her waist so thin
her voice like chimes and mandolins
beautiful phantom doll
[verse: marilisa valtazanou]
sat-rday night on circus street
beating a long and ill-conceived retreat
carnival barkers bar her way
she never hears a word they say
[chorus: mich & marilisa]
in glorious dreams
she strolls, the boys beseech
the venus queen of venice beach
so near, so ever out of reach
beautiful phantom doll
[bridge: marilisa]
midnight, the struggle is over
rise up, lily-white delicate shoulder
outside, the poets all know her
all of her children are waiting
[verse: mich]
beggars and wrecks line junkyard lanes
tiffany slippers cl!ck-clack through the rain
rickety bones and sheer chiffon
dancing on the mayor’s lawn
[chorus: mich & marilisa]
in glorious dreams
they glide through gilded rooms
the drakes and gravely pale dragoons
the wasted daughters of the moon
beautiful phantom doll
[verse: marilisa]
raggedy andy wrote this song
scribbled it here where oceans meet the dawn
scuttled away on hands and claws
cinderella sailors draw
[chorus/outro: mich and marilisa]
on glorious dreams
sunrise, she spins her spells
on rising tides of wishing wells
on aphrodite lotus sh-lls
beautiful phantom doll
beautiful phantom…
beautiful phantom…
beautiful phantom…
doll…
