Mother needs something today to calm her down
And though she’s not really ill
There’s a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of a mother’s little helper
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
One pill makes you larger, and one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you don’t do anything at all
Go ask Alice, when she’s ten feet tall
She tries not to shatter
Kaleidoscope style
Personality changes behind her red smile
Every new problem brings a stranger inside
Helplessly forcing one more new disguise
Christine, the strawberry girl
Christine, banana split lady
Christine, the strawberry girl
Christine, banana split lady
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Collideascope
Everything looks topsy turvy
You will see one young girl split into two
One half who’s false one half true
Never tell a secret with your eyes
It’s the eyes that let you down
Tell a little truth with many lies
It’s the only way I’ve found
Be sure it’s true when you say I love you
It’s a sin to tell a lie
A lie may well fool someone else
But it tells the truth about you to you
I can tell when you’re telling lies
I can see it in your tired eyes
I can tell when you’re telling lies
I can see it in your lack of surprise
Hollow doll, you lied again
Don’t come here to pray so full of lie
Those fantasies invade like a cancer forms inside
Regarding the pain I’m counting again
Recover from this doll who you burning for
I’m gonna buy a Paper Doll that I can call my own
A doll that other fellows cannot steal
And then the flirty, flirty guys with their flirty, flirty eyes
Will have to flirt with dollies that are real
Paper roses, paper roses,
Oh how real those roses seem to me
But they’re only imitation
Like your imitation love for me
You’re honey child to a swarm of bees
Gonna blow right through you like a breeze
Give me one last dance
We’ll slide down the surface of things
You’re the real thing
Yeah the real thing
You’re the real thing
Even better than the real thing. Child
Birds do it, bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let’s do it, let’s fall in love
Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees
And the flowers and the trees
And the moon up above
And a thing called “Love”
Love obviously very soon everybody
Love obviously very soon everybody
Oh don’t you love that sweet time
Oh don’t you love that sweet time
Touch that dial, turn me on
Start me like a motor, make me run
Lovin’ every minute of it
Lovin’ every minute of it
Turn that dial all the way
Shoot me like a rocket into space
Lovin’ every minute of it
Lovin’ every minute of it
Lovin’ every minute of it, c’mon
Baby wants it fast, baby wants a blast
She wants a rocket ride, she wants a rocket ride
Down on the corner by the traffic light
Everybody’s lookin’ as she goes by
They turn their heads and they watch her till she’s gone
Lord have mercy, baby’s got her blue jeans on
And if you pardon me
I’d like to say
We’ll do okay
Forever in blue jeans, babe
And long as I can have you
Here with me I’d much rather be
Forever in blue jeans, babe
