Blank Baby Songtext
You might say someone else said it
Someone somewhere better than I-I-I
You might see someone taking pictures
You can't put them back and I'll tell you why

Cause even when originals are dead
Something still put that idea in your head

You might hear someone else singing
This very same song
I can't slap on nasty handcuffs
Or scold like a lawyer saying "Wrong wrong wrong"

Cause even when the copyrights are fixed
A genuine thief has got a bottomless bag of tricks

I was born a blank baby
And the world is here to fill my head
I'm still a blank baby
But the world would rather see me dead
I was born a blank baby
And the world is here to fill my head
I'm still a blank baby
But the world would rather see me dead

You might find a painting in a studio
Might test the paint to find it's wet
Start scraping down as deep as you can go
Until it's blank as you can get
Cause even when the paint is dry
You can just erase it all by rolling back your eyes

I was born a blank baby
And the world is here to fill my head
I'm still a blank baby
But the world would rather see me dead
I was born a blank baby
And the world is here to fill my head
I'm still a blank baby
But the world would rather see me dead

They'd rather see me dead
They'd rather see me dead
See me dead
They'd rather see me dead

You might hear someone else singing
This very same song
I can't slap on nasty handcuffs
Or scold like a teacher screaming "Wrong wrong wrong"
Cause all of the originals are dead

I was born a blank baby
And the world is here to fill my head
I'm still a blank baby
But the world would rather see me dead
I was born a blank baby
And the world is here to fill my head
I'm still a blank baby
But the world would rather see me dead

They'd rather see me dead
They'd rather see me dead
See me dead
They'd rather see me dead

You'd rather see me dead
