[Narrator]
Am Em
Beside the girl’s body her suicide note
F C
And the words from the doll’s song was all that she wrote
Am Em
It was published in papers, discussed, yet despite
F C
This the dolls kept broadcasting all day and all night
[Instrumental]
G Dm Em
[Narrator]
Am Em
Columnists bantered, parent groups fumed
F C
And distrust, fear and anger rose, spread and loomed
Am Em
The dolls were derided, distained and decried
F C
And everyone waited for the match to ignite
[Byron]
F C
It won’t be too long folks til our doll runs this town

We’re voting him in and it’s happening now
F C
We’re all at the corssroads where worlds connect
Eb Bb
And your kids are all dancing each night with the dead

Kill the dolls kill the dolls everyone screamed

Am F Am Dm Em
[Narrator]
Am Em
The streets are chaotic as bonfires glow
F C
In the alleys and flames fear and furor just grow
Am Em
The dolls are picked up and then thrown in the fire
F C
And the fever of violence and panic conspire
Am Em
Poor Byron he runs to find Jasper, his love
F C
As the dolls are torn limb from limb, torched and burned up
Am Em
No one‘s left to listen to his speeches or cries
F C
He’s fanned the flames that kill his dear doll tonight
[Byron]
