Point Of It All Lyrics - Who Killed Amanda Palmer (dig) - Amanda Palmer

oh, what a noble, distinguished collection of fine little friends you have made 

hitting the tables without you again: no we'll wait, no we promise, we'll wait 

june makes these excellent sewing machines out of common industrial waste 

she spends a few days at a time on the couch but she's fine 

she wears shades, she wears shades 

but no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my babydoll 

and you're aces for coming along 

you're almost human, after all 

and you're learning that just 'cause they call themselves friends 

doesn't mean they'll call... 

they made the comment in jest 

but you've got the needle 

i guess that's the point of it all

maybe a week in the tropics would help to remind you how nice life can be 

we propped you right up in a chair on a deck with a beautiful view of the sea 

but a couple weeks later we came back and you and the chair were nowhere to be seen 

you had magically moved to the closet 

eyes fixed to the place where the dryer had been 

oh, but no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my babydoll 

and you're aces for coming along 

you're almost human, after all 

why on earth would i keep you propped up in here when you so love the fall...? 

the pattern's laid out on the bed 

with dozens of colors of thread 

but you've got the needle 

i guess that's the point in the end 

but it's better to waste your day watching the scenery change at a comatose rate 

than to put yourself in it and turn into one of those cigarette ads that you hate 

but while you were sleeping some men came around 

said they had some dimensions to take 

i'm not sure what they were talking about but they sure made a mess of your face 

Photos 

but still, no one can stare at the wall as good as you, my babydoll 

and you're aces for playing along 

you're almost human, even now 

and just 'cause they call themselves experts 

it doesn't mean sweet fuck all... 

they've got the permanent press 

homes with a stable address 

and they've got excitement 

and life by the fistful 

but you've got the needle 

i guess that's the point of it all
