Radium Girls

Radium girls
Radium girls
Radium girls
Radium girls
Radium-

First, I heard voices in my head
Could never do the things they said
And still, they whisper in the night
Now I've decided, they might be right

Radium girls
Radium girls
(I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready)
Radium girls
(I'm ready, I'm ready)
Radium girls
Radium girls

Boss has told me, "Don't worry, young lady"
"Shut up, sit down, and look pretty"
Lick, lick, lick, lick, lick radium
Shut up, sit down, and look pretty
Did you know I was carrying a baby?
And now my baby is dead facedown
Let me tell the bossman it ain't ready
To make your glasses, they click, click, click

Radium girls
(Uh) radium girls
(I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready)
Radium girls
(I'm ready, I'm ready)
Radium girls
Radium girls

There's something wrong, I can see it
Everybody knows, no one's talking about it
Death is glowing in the dark, my bones, they fall apart
These lines of poison paint, they're gonna be my last sentence

Lick the tips of the paintbrush
Lick the tips of the paintbrush
Lick the tips of the paintbrush
Lick the tips of (do what you're told)

Radium girls
Radium girls
(I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready)
Radium girls
(I'm ready, I'm ready)
Radium girls
Radium girls

There's something wrong, I can see it
Everybody knows, no one's talking about it, ooh
Death is glowing in the dark, my bones, they fall apart
These lines of poison paint, they're gonna be my last sentence

Do what you're told
Do what you're told
Lick the tips of the paintbrush
Lick the tips of the paintbrush
