Intro

 Giving you more of what for

Always worked for me before

 Now I'm a shabby doll

 What's going on behind the green elevator door

 With just a shabby doll

 There's a hit man facing

A compromising situation

 With just a shabby doll

 And a very neat line in character assassination

 She's just a shabby doll

Chorus

 She's just a shabby doll

 She's putting him off and putting you on

 She's just the shabby doll, she's just the shabby doll

 You're swearing upon, you know in your heart

 She's gone you know in your heart

She's just a shabby doll

 There's a girl in this dress

There's always a girl in distress

 She's just a shabby doll

She's so sure she's self-possessed

 Then again she's half undressed

 She's just a shabby doll

 The boy that I used to be

Showed no sign of sympathy

 For just a shabby doll

I have betrayed you and me

 And paid for my own bribery

 With just a shabby doll

(chorus)

Bridge

 He's the tired toy that everyone enjoyed

 He wants to be a fancy man but he's nothing but a nancy boy

 He's all pride and no joy

 And being what you might call a whore

Always worked for me before

 Now I'm a shabby doll

Untie the gag the cat's out of the bag

 But won't show his claws

 He's just a shabby doll

 She said you must be joking

Some things are left unspoken

 You're just a shabby doll

He's lying limp and soaking

 He was openly broken

 By just a shabby doll

(chorus)
