The princess falls for the clown
the clown mask is just a facade
hiding the rubbish from the town
i’m a trashcan baby
i’m a trashcan baby
i want to be a suit of armour
full of flesh for you to love
not this disposalable bin of humour
i’m a trash can baby
i’m a trashcan baby
after your last love afair
you want to smile again
so the clown you ensnare
i’m a trashcan baby
i’m a trashcan baby
a pawn is what a trashcan is
a piece to dispose off as your hurt
a receptacle for your tissues aye it is
i’m a trashcan baby
i’m a trashcan baby
i’ve learnt to move on quick
before my lost choking heart
suffers from the vanquished sick
i’m a trashcan baby
i’m a trashcan baby
a dragon keeps a maiden warm with laughter
but theres always knights to kill the flame
a dragons scales are made of tears of neverafter
i’m the trashcan baby
i’m the trashcan baby
and in my furnace songs burn.
