| Nobody feels any pain | |
| Tonight as I stand inside the rain | |
| Ev'rybody 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 like a woman, yes she does | |
| And then 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 sees finally that she's like all the rest | |
| With her fog, with her amphetamine and her pearls | |
| She takes just like a woman | |
| And she makes love like a woman | |
| And she aches just like a woman | |
| But she breaks just like a little girl | |
| It was raining from the first | |
| And I was dying there 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 that | |
| I just don't fit | |
| Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit | |
| And when we meet again | |
| Introduced as friends | |
| Please don't let on that you knew me when | |
| I was hungry and it was your world | |
| You take just like a woman | |
| And you take just like a woman, yes you do | |
| And you make love like a woman, yes you do | |
| And then you ache just like a woman | |
| But you break just like a little girl |
