Complimentary Me
When I was girl I dreamt of my twin
She shared all my flaws she lived in my skin
She always forgave me no matter the sin
She finished my jokes before I'd begin
When I got older I asked for a dog
I dressed him my clothes I taught him right from wrong
I told him to love me more than his bone
He ran after a milk truck and he never came back home
Oh, dear me.
What a strange peculiar thing
That I should always see someone just like me
Or can it be, such a constant ache in me
that I should always see the complimentary me
Oh all of my lovers they all've been the same
They see what I am and they all fly away
Cause I pick off their scabs and I rub off their stains
'til they can't quite recall their own god given name
Oh, dear me.
