Doughnut Song by Tori Amos Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Had me a trick and a kick and your message
You’ll never gain weight from a doughnut hole
Then thought that I could decipher your message
There’s no one here dear, no one at all

[Chorus]
And if I’m wasting all your time this time
Maybe you never learned to take
And if I’m hanging on to your shade
I guess I’m way beyond the pale

[Verse 2]
And southern men can grow gold, can grow pretty
(You can tell me it’s over, it's over)
Blood can be pretty like a delicate man
(You can tell me over, over your shoulder)
Copper to steel to a hinge that is faltered
(You can tell me it’s over and over)
That lets you in, lets you in, lets you in
(Come in, Houston)
[Chorus]
And if I’m wasting all your time this time
I guess you never learned to take
And if I’m hanging on to your shade
I guess I’m way beyond the pale

[Bridge]
Something’s just, something’s just
Keeping you numb

[Verse 3]
You told me last night you were a sun now
With your very own devoted satellite
Happy for you and I am sure that I hate you
Two sons too many, too many able fires, hey, yes

[Chorus]
And you’ve been wasting all my time this time (I saw you)
(You can tell me it’s over, it's over)
I said you never learned to take
(You can tell me over, over your shoulder)
And if I’m hanging on to your shade
I guess I’m way beyond the pale
I guess I’m way beyond the pale

[Outro]
Had me a trick and a kick and your message
You’ll never gain weight from a doughnut hole
