The Dresden Dolls

Alternative Rock · dark Cabaret · punk Rock

The Dresden Dolls are an American musical duo from Boston, Massachusetts. Formed in 2001, the group consists of Amanda Palmer (vocals, piano, harmonica, ukelele) and Brian Viglione (drums, percussion, guitar, vocals). The two describe their style as "Brechtian punk cabaret", a phrase invented by Palmer because she was "terrified" that the press would invent a name that "would involve the word gothic." The Dresden Dolls are part of an underground dark cabaret movement that started gaining momentum in the early 1990s. Wikipedia

So you dont want to hear about my good song? And you dont want to hear about how i am getting on With all the things that i can get done The sun is in the sky & i am by my lonesome So you don't want to hear about my good day? You have better things to do than to hear me say		God its been a lovely day! everything is going my way I took out the trash today and i'm on fire...
So you don't want to hear about my good friends? You dont have the guts to take the truth or consequence Success is in the eye of the beholder And its looking even better over your cold shoulder		I'm not suggesting you up and line me up for questioning But jesus think about the bridges you are burning And i'm betting That even though you knew it from the start You'd rather be a bitch than be an ordinary broken heart
So go ahead and talk about your bad day... I want all the details of the pain and misery That you are inflicting on the others I consider them my sisters and i'd like their numbers		God its been a lovely day! everything is going my way I took up croquet today and i'm on fire
I picked up the pieces of my broken ego I have finally made my peace as far as you and me go But i'd love to have you up to see the place & i'd like to do more than survive i'd like to rub it in your face.....		Hey! its been a lovely day! everything is going my way I had so much fun today and i'm on fire God it's been a lovely day everything's been going my way Ever since you went away hey i'm on fire..... I'm on fire... I'm on fire... So you dont want to hear about my good day?
