Ken Doll

wrote this just this morning. just came to me. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing and creating it

 

Caught in a trap

Always so thristy

But you never know what for

Forever reaching

Just beyond your grasp

You're a Ken doll

So plastic and empty of essence

You speak dumb

Follow like a lamb

When instead

If only you would

You could be so much more

 

Molded to be

Some false image of male perfection

Does not suit you at all

Rather it in its own way

Cripples you

Cramps your style

You're a mouse

When you could a lion

Really wish we could all hear you

ROAR!

 

Chorus

 

Ken doll

Ken doll

Don't you wannabe something more

Something real

Break on thru

And touch that other side

In the flesh tonight

 

Maybe just maybe

If Barbie would let you off that leash

You could be your own man

Instead of her silly plastic

Brainless little toy

Got your own worth

Now its time

You knew it

Were't afraid to show it

 

Ken doll

Ken doll

Don't you wannabe something more

Something real

Break on thru

And touch that other side

In the flesh tonight

 

Ken doll

Ken doll

Don't you wannabe something more

Something real

Break on thru

And touch that other side

In the flesh tonight
