[Verse 1: Princess Superstar]

I got King Kong playin' ping-pong with a big bong

And my brainstorm and the pain's warm

Swarm like smog in Hong Kong

I know it's wrong but I kill me softly with my own song

Some magic wand could make it be okay

Kill the decay like a cake and a lay, but today

It wasn't a good day

And you can't touch me I've already faded, I faded away


[Chorus: Beth Orton]

Sometimes I wear nothin' on the outside

Because there's too much on the inside

The bouncer wouldn't let me in

He said my emotions were too close to the skin

And at this point a touch would feel like a cut


[Verse 2: Princess Superstar]

Turn me off to turn it off

I'm off base, off face when I think I lace, I cough mace

I could go on for days, but then I always complain

I waste a breath and a name

I aim and I maim, and I came here to choose

But when I look around me, compare me and lose

Payin' dues, feelin' blues, got no clues

And it's all news to you, huh

I keep it so undercover, I could be a mattress

And it matches the patchy ashes, my brain crashes

This address, I hope I move from it

Summit to plummet, I covet

Release and it's comin'


[Chorus: Beth Orton]

Sometimes I wear nothin' on the outside

Because there's too much on the inside

The bouncer wouldn't let me in

He said my emotions were too close to the skin

And at this point a touch would feel like a cut


[Verse 3: Princess Superstar]

Untouchable, it ain't discussible

I'm disgustable in a vestibule

I must a pulled a muscle, full in my head

I bet I get better, but better remember I waited forever

Fuck Princess, I'm talkin' 'bout Concetta, you never met her

It kind of appears my ego account's in arrears

Fear, tore up and teared with wet tears

I feel weird, and I wish it was easy to ask you to come here

Sometimes I'm happy when I see the sun

(Uh-huh, uh-huh) One day I'll say I've won

And if you think this song is done

There's Untouchable Part 1


[Chorus: Beth Orton]

Sometimes I wear nothin' on the outside

Because there's too much on the inside

The bouncer wouldn't let me in

He said my emotions were too close to the skin

And at this point a touch would feel like a cut


[Outro: Princess Superstar]
