China Doll
  ----------
    A pistol shot, at five o'clock,
  the bells of heaven ring,
  tell me what you done it for,
  No I won't tell you a thing.
    Yesterday I begged you
  before I hit the ground,
  all I leave behind me
  is only what I found.
    If you can abide it,
  let the hurdy-gurdy play,
  stranger ones have come by here
  before they flew away.
    I will not condemn you
  nor yet would I deny,
  I would ask the same of you,
  but failing, will not die.
    Take up your china doll,
  take up your china doll,
  it's only fractured
  and just a little nervous from the fall.
  La-la-la-la-la-la-la.
