Blank Baby Lyrics - Presidents Of The United States Of America

You might say someone else said it 

Some worse some better then I 

You might see someone taking pictures 

They can't put them back and I'll tell you why? 

'Cause even when originals are dead 

Something still put that idea in your head 

You might hear someone else singing 

This very same song 

I can't slap on nasty handcuffs 

Or scold like a lawyer screaming wrong, wrong, wrong 

'Cause even when the copyrights are fixed 

A genuine thief has got a bottomless bag of tricks 

I was born a blank baby and the world's here to fill my head 

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead 

I was born a blank baby and the world's here to fill my head 

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead 

You might see a painting in a studio 

Might test the paint to find it's wet 

Start scraping down as deep as you can go 

Until it's just as blank as it can get 

'Cause even when the paint is dry 

You can just erase it all by rolling back your eyes 

I was born a blank baby and the world is here to fill my head 

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead 

I was born a blank baby and the world is here to fill my head 

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead 

Rather see me dead, see me dead 

You might hear someone else singing 

This very same song 

I can't slap on nasty handcuffs 

Or scold like a teacher screaming wrong, wrong, wrong 

'Cause all the originals are dead 

I was born a blank baby and the world is here to fill my head 

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead 

I was born a blank baby and the world is here to fill my head 

I'm still a blank baby but the world would rather see me dead 

Rather see me dead, see me dead 

You'd rather see me dead, rather see me dead 

You'd rather see me dead 

You'd rather see me dead
