Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Everybody knows
That baby's got new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls

She takes
Just like a woman
Yes, she does
She makes
Love just like a woman
Yes, she does
And she aches
Just like a woman
But she breaks
Just like a little girl

Queen Mary, she's my friend
Yes, I believe I'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can't be blessed
Till she finally sees that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls

She takes
Just like a woman
Yes, she does
She makes
Love just like a woman
Yes, she does
And she aches
Just like a woman
Ah, but she breaks
Just like a little girl

It was raining from the first
And I was dying of thirst
So I came in here
And your long-time curse hurts
But what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't it clear?

You fake
Just like a woman
Yes, you do
You make
Love just like a woman
Yes, you do
And you ache
Just like a woman
Ah, but you break
Just like a little girl
