Mannequin

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 figuring out

Breaking down a man is no workout

But I have no clue how to get through to you

Oh

I wanna hit you just to see if you cry

I keep knockin' on wood

Hopin' there's a real boy inside

'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

I wish I could just turn you on

Put a battery in, 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

Oh

I'm such a fool, I'm such a fool, I'm such a fool

This one's out of 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 could solve 'em, baby

I could bring you to life if you let me inside, baby

It'll hurt, but in the end

You'll be a man

You're not a man

You're just a mannequin

I wish you could feel that my love is real

A toy

Could you ever be a real, real boy?

Understand

But you're not a man

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
