Lyrics
Blend
satin doll, tiny hands, tiny feet, tiny everything
in the closet on the floor
at the end of the hallway
oh no?unwanted, unloved
in an age of bigger satin dolls
so lonely, so ashamed
no one wants a small satin doll
cannibal cooking dinner in the corner of a dark cave
could be a sister or a mother
check your brother just to be safe
oh no?unwanted unloved
it's not nice to be a cannibal
so hungry so untamed
no one likes the cannibal
these are the days of angels
weisenheimer in big trouble in the corner by the teacher
??shoot your mouth off? clean the blackboard?
?at the end of the schoolday?
oh no?unwanted, unloved
you're not so wise if you get caught
the stupid are often brave
and you weren't born very smart
haven't we learned
it's nice to be something other than
an every day drone of no worth
wanting and waiting to blend
these are the days of angels
