mannequins from 2feet


Mannequins, mannequins
Eyes open wide sometime naked display
On the windows in major shopping malls
And in boutiques you stand tall

You don't complain
The hours standing there
You don't get tired smiling
Looking at one direction

Mannequins, mannequins
Nobody takes a second look
Though you make to look pretty
Window shoppers hardly glance at you

But you aren't in vain
The drug dealers think of your uses
They stuff your empty bodies
With packages of heroin

When the police raid
You are caught then famous
Mannequins, mannequins
Now people notice about you!
