Mannequin

Mannequin
How do I get
Closer to you
When you keep
It all on mute
How do I know
The right way
To love you
Usually the queens
Are figurin out
Beating down the man
Is no work out
But I have no clue
How to get
Through to you

I wanna hit you
Just to see
If you cry
Keep holdin on
Hopin there's
A real boy inside
But you're not a man
You're just a mannequin
I wish you could feel
That my love is real
But you're not a man
I wish
I could just
Turn you on
But a battery in
And make you talk
Even pull
A string for you
To say anything
But with you
There is no guarantee
Only expired warranty
A bunch
Of broken parts
But I can't seem
To find your heart
I'm such a fool
I'm such a fool
I'm such a fool
Cause this one's
Outta my hands
I can't put you
Back together again
Cause you're not a man
You're just a Mannequin
I wish you could feel
That my love is real
You're just a, a toy
Could you ever be
A real, real boy
And understand
But you're not a man

Oh understand
That you're not a man
