lyrics

Eliza Wolf
She loved dolls
Annabella cried
Sophia sang in rhymes

She liked to place
Their furniture
Putting on a spread
For dinnertime

Teeny tiny tears
Stainless souvenirs
Of inner years

Eliza hid
Behind closed doors
Locked the bully out
And stayed on course

The big day came
She gave it back
Right between the eyes
And he went slack

Who’s the loser now
Eliza takes a bow
Anyhow

Eliza has
No complaints
Never coming out
So she reads and paints

She’s studying
Theology
Cuddling a doll
For company

Happiness untold
The peace of growing old
Taking hold
