how do i get closer to you
when you keep it all on mute
how will i know the right way to love you
usually the queen of figurin out
breaking down a man is no work out
but i have no clue
how to get through to you
i wanna hit you just to see if you cry
i keep knockin' on wood, hopin there's a real boy inside
but you're not a man
you're just a mannequin
i wish you could feel that my love is real
but you're not a man
i wish i could just turn you on
put a battery in and make you talk
even pull a string for you to say anything
but with you there is no guarantee
only expired warranty
a bunch of broken parts
and i can't seem to find your heart
i'm such a fool
i'm such a fool
i'm such a fool
this one's outta my hands
i can't put you back together again
cause you're not a man
you're just a mannequin
i wish you could feel that my love is real
but you're not a man
you're just a, a toy
could you ever be a real, real boy
and understand
but you're not a man
if the past is the problem
our future can solve them baby
i could bring you life if you let me inside baby
this will hurt but in the end you'll be a man
cause you're not a man
you're just a mannequin
i wish you could feel that my love is real
you're just a, a toy
could you ever be a real, real boy
and understand
but you're not a man
