She's sweet like honey
Sour like democracy
She don't want your money
She needs your sympathy

She'll be your greatest lover
But she doesn't belong to you
She's unlike any other
She doesn't belong to you

Oh, she's your china doll
She's patient, but won't be for long
She's hopeful, but time's running low
She's gone before you know

She's the alarm bell ringing
She's your latest fix
The fat lady's singing the truth and not some trick

Oh, she's your china doll
She's patient, but won't be for long
She's hopeful, but time's running low
She's gone before you know
Before you know
Before you know
Before you know, you know

She's sweet like honey
Sour like democracy
She don't want your money
She needs your sympathy
