"Missed Me"

missed me missed me now you've got to kiss me
if you kiss me mister i might tell my sister
if i tell her mister she might tell my mother and my
mother, mister, just might tell my father and my father
mister he won't be too happy and he'll have his lawyer
come up from the city and arrest you mister
so i wouldnt miss me if you get me, mister, see?

missed me missed me now you've got to kiss me
if you kiss me mister you must think im pretty
if you think so mister you must want to fuck me
if you fuck me mister it must mean you love me
if you love me mister you would never leave me
it's as simple as can be!

missed me missed me now you've got to kiss me
if you miss me mister why do you keep leaving
if you trick me mister i will make you suffer
and they'll get you mister put you in the slammer
and forget you mister then i think you'll miss me
won't you miss me won't you miss me

missed me missed me now you've got to kiss me
if you kiss me mister take responsibility
i'm fragile mister just like any girl would be
and so misunderstood (so treat me delicately!)

missed me missed me now you've gone and done it
hope you're happy in the county penitentiary
it serves you right for kissing little girls but i will visit if you miss me
do you miss me? MISS ME??
how's the food they feed you??
do you miss me
will you kiss me through the window?
do you MISS ME? MISS ME??!!
will they ever let you go???
i miss my mister so!!!!

"Coin Operated Boy"

coin operated boy
sitting on the shelf
he is just a toy
but i turn him on
and he comes to life
automatic joy
that is why i want a
coin operated boy

made of plastic and elastic
he is rugged and long-lasting
who could ever ever ask for more?
love without complications galore

coin operated boy
all the other real ones that i destroy
cannot hold a candle to my new boy and i'll
never let him go and i'll never be alone
not with my coin operated boy......

this bridge was written to make you feel smittener
with my sad picture of
girl getting bitterer
can you extract me
from my plastic fantasy
i didnt think so
but im still convinceable
will you persist even after i bet you
a billion dollars that i'll never love you
will you persist even after i kiss you
goodbye for the last time
will you keep on trying to prove it?
i'm dying to lose it...
i'm losing my confidence
i want it...
i want you...
i want a...
coin operated boy.

and if i had a star to wish on
for my life i can't imagine
any flesh and blood could be his match
i can even take him in the bath

coin operated boy
he may not be real experienced with girls
but i know he feels like a boy should feel
isnt that the point?
that is why i want a coin operated boy
with his pretty coin operated voice
saying that he loves me
that hes thinking of me
straight and to the point
that is why i want
a coin operated boy.

Girl Anachronism

you can tell from the scars on my arms and cracks in my hips and the dents in my car
and the blisters on my lips
that i'm not the carefullest of girls
you can tell from the glass on the floor
and the strings that're breaking and i keep on breaking more and it looks like i am shaking
but it's just the temperature
and then again if it were any colder i could disengage
if i were any older i could act my age
but i dont think that youd believe me
it'snot the way i'm meant to be it's just the way the operation made me

and you can tell from the state of my room that they let me out too soon and the pills that i ate came a couple years too late and ive got some issues to work through
there i go again pretending to be you
make-believing that i have a soul beneath the surface trying to convince you
it was accidentally on purpose
i am not so serious this passion is a plagiarism i might join your century but only on a rare occasion
i was taken out before the labor pains set in and now
behold the world's worst accident
i am the girl anachronism

and you can tell
by the red in my eyes and the bruises on my thighs and the knots in my hair and the bathtub full of flies that i'm not right now at all
there i go again pretending that i'll fall don't call the doctors cause they've seen it all before they'll say just let her crash and burn she'll learn
the attention just encourages her
and you can tell from the full-body cast that i'm sorry that i asked though you did everything you could (like any decent person would)
but i might be catching so don't touch
you'll start believeing youre immune to gravity and stuff don't get me wet because the bandages will all come off

and you can tell
from the smoke at the stake that the current state is critical
well it is the little things, for instance:
in the time it takes to break it she can make up ten excuses:
please excuse her for the day, its just the way the medication makes her...
i dont necessarily believe there is a cure for this so i might join your century but only as a doubtful guest i was too precarious removed as a caesarian behold the worlds worst accident
I AM THE GIRL ANACHRONISM
