Drugstore Primadonna

Call me up I'll call your bluff
Chinatown's all boarded up
So you can catch me at the fruit stand looking cheap
I know you wanna

I was a tin horn moth
In the butterfly room
Just a dime store lover
Version of you
I was a fools gold
Glimmer in a miners pan
Broken nails
Reaching for your hand
That's how I saw my reflection in your eyes
That's how I saw myself filtered through your light

Call me up I'll call your bluff
Chinatown's all boarded up
So you can catch me at the fruit stand looking cheap
I know you wanna
But I know that you're not coming back
I'm out of hope I'm out of cash
Sitting here as summer ends
Like a drugstore primadonna

I was Russel Stover truffles
Flat champagne on New Year's Eve
Tawdry, all decked out in ruffles
Trying too hard to make you see
That's how I saw my reflection in your eyes
That's how I saw myself filtered through your light

Call me up I'll call your bluff
Chinatown's all boarded up
So you can catch me at the fruit stand looking cheap
I know you wanna
But I know that you're not coming back
I'm out of hope I'm out of cash
Sitting here as summer ends
Like a drugstore primadonna

Where's the lie Well are you wrong
I'm not fancy but I'm tough and brave and stronger than
You can't hurt me now you're gone
Starlights free and so are restful nights and songs
And me
I'm so cheap I'm free

Call me up I'll call your bluff
Chinatown's all boarded up
So you can catch me at the fruit stand looking cheap
I know you wanna
But I know that you're not coming back
I'm out of hope I'm out of cash
Sitting here as summer ends
Like a drugstore primadonna
