Battery Acid Baby

yea, once upon a time
you used to walk the streets all night
cleaning up with lonely souls
paying for good times
you got a little greedy
taking from the top
the boss found out
he tracked you down
and ruined such a pretty face
battery acid baby
don't you cry
I just can't stand it
when you make that face
your life was a gamble
and you lost your biggest hand
now you wear a mask
stay shrouded in shame
yea, the basement of a crackhouse
is the only place you'll work
taking in the poor souls
too high to even tell
keep the light down low babe
better off that way
acid burns lingerie
the hottest mess in Detroit City
battery acid baby
don't you cry
I just can't stand it
when you make that face
your life was a gamble
and you lost your biggest hand
now you wear a mask
stay shrouded in shame
battery acid baby
don't you cry
I just can't stand it
when you make that face
your life was a gamble
and you lost your biggest hand
now you wear a mask
stay shrouded in
battery acid baby
don't you cry
I just can't stand it
when you make that face
your life was a gamble
and you lost your biggest hand
now you wear a mask
stay shrouded in shame
