Lyrics
(Chorus)
Blood still stains when the sheets are washed
Sex don’t sleep when the lights are off
Kids are still depressed when you dress them up
And syrup is still syrup in a sippy cup
He’s still dead when you’re done with the bottle
Of course it’s a corpse that you keep in the cradle
Kids are still depressed when you dress them up
Syrup is still syrup in a sippy cup
(Verse 1)
Blood money, blood money
How did you afford this ring that I love, honey?
“Just another shift at the drug company, ”
He doesn’t think I’m that f**ing dumb does he?
It doesn’t matter what you pull up to your home
We know what goes on inside
You call that a** your own, we call that silicone
Silly girl with silly boys
(Chorus)
Blood still stains when the sheets are washed
Sex don’t sleep when the lights are off
Kids are still depressed when you dress them up
And syrup is still syrup in a sippy cup
He’s still dead when you’re done with the bottle
Of course it’s a corpse that you keep in the cradle
Kids are still depressed when you dress them up
Syrup is still syrup in a sippy cup
Sippy cup, s-s-sippy cup, in a sippy cup, sut sippy cup
In a sippy cup, in a sippy cup, in a sippy cup, in a sippy cup
(Verse 2)
Pill diet, pill diet, if they give you a new pill then you will buy it
If they say to kill yourself, then you will try it
All the makeup in the world, won’t make you less insecure
You got weights in your pockets, when you go to the doctor’s
Your favorite candy’s cotton, that’s why all your teeth are rotten
Silly girl with silly boys
(Chorus)
Blood still stains when the sheets are washed
Sex don’t sleep when the lights are off
Kids are still depressed when you dress them up
And syrup is still syrup in a sippy cup
He’s still dead when you’re done with the bottle
Of course it’s a corpse that you keep in the cradle
Kids are still depressed when you dress them up
Syrup is still syrup in a sippy cup
Sippy cup, s-s-sippy cup, in a sippy cup, sut sippy cup
In a sippy cup, in a sippy cup, in a sippy cup, in a sippy cup
(Chorus)
Blood still stains when the sheets are washed
Sex don’t sleep when the lights are off
Kids are still depressed when you dress them up
And syrup is still syrup in a sippy cup
My 2 cents
This song has a few layers. Each of them speak to my damaged little heart.
One.
It speaks about hiding the pain in overlooked places. Who doesn’t get that ?
Two.
It takes a close look at falseness. “All the makeup in the world, won’t make you less insecure” Again it is hiding but it is the false nature you are hiding. That need to not be seen.
The video is amazing. And I really enjoy the message in the song.

As an Aussie (older type) I’ve not many Melanie’s song, however I found the lyrics and the song enjoyable, and I was intrigued by the 1st verse, where’s the coming from ??

This is supposed to be a follow up to her dollhouse song. When she talks about what goes down in the kitchen? Well in the video of this one the mother kills the father and his mistress in the kitchen. The daughter sees it. And so the mother drugs her to keep her from telling.
