Ever since you were a little girl You set the rules in your little world But girls grow up and throw their toys away You're a big girl now but you still wanna play (Girl, we're living) You dress them up the way that you want to (Girl, we're living) You make them do just what you want them to do (Girl, we're living) Once I thought we had a love that was true (Girl, we're living) But I'm just another doll in your dollhouse to you We're living in a dollhouse We're living in a dollhouse Girl, we're living in a dollhouse You may feel safe and sound But your dollhouse, girl, is falling down It's all been neatly arranged in your mind Every detail fits your own design And every room is perfectly in place But I can see the sadness, baby, on your face (Girl, we're living) You had a plan and darling like a child (Girl, we're living) You thought it's down to fashion, down to style (Girl, we're living) But your little dreamhouse is runnin' wild (Girl, we're living) Before your very eyes we're shrinking down to size We're living in a dollhouse We're living in a dollhouse Girl, we're living in a dollhouse We may feel safe and sound But our dollhouse, girl, is falling down Everything's as you dreamed it would be But there's something wrong that you can't see Room by room you're looking for some little flaw A crack somewhere in your dollhouse wall (Girl, we're living) Something, girl, that will explain away (Girl, we're living) The hurt you feel, darling, when we play (Girl, we're living) Your little dolls they got a grip on you (Girl, we're living) Your little dolls they got a grip on you (Girl, we're living) Your little dolls they got a grip on you (Girl, we're living) Until you're just another doll in your dollhouse too We're living in a dollhouse We're living in a dollhouse Girl, we're living in a dollhouse We may feel safe and sound But our dollhouse, girl, is falling down (We're living in a dollhouse) And we're living in a dollhouse We're living in a dollhouseWell ever since you were a little girl You set the rules in your little world But girls grow up and throw their toys away You're a big girl now but you still wanna play (Girl we're living) You dress them up the way you want to (Girl we're living) You make them do just what you want them to (Girl we're living) Once I thought we had a love that was true But I'm just another doll in your dollhouse to you We're living in a dollhouse We're living in a dollhouse Girl we're living in a dollhouse You may feel safe and sound But your dollhouse, girl, is falling down It's all been neatly arranged in your mind Every detail fits your own design Every room is perfectly in place But I can see the sadness, baby, on your face You had a plan and darling like a child You thought it's down to fashion, down to style But your little dreamhouse is runnin' wild Before your very eyes we're shrinking down to size We're living in a dollhouse We're living in a dollhouse Girl we're living in a dollhouse You may feel safe and sound But your dollhouse, girl, is falling down Everything's as you dreamed it would be But there's something wrong that you can't see Room by room you keep looking for some little flaw A crack somewhere in your dollhouse wall Something, girl, that will explain away The hurt you feel, darling, when we play Your little dolls they got grip on you Until you're just another doll in your dollhouse too We're living in a dollhouse Girl, we're living in a dollhouse Oh we're living in a dollhouse We may feel safe and sound But our dollhouse, girl, is falling down Oh we're living in a dollhouse Girl, we're living in a dollhouse Yeah we're living in a dollhouse

Bon depuis toute petite Tu fixes les règles dans ton petit monde Mais les filles grandissent et jettent leurs jouets Tu es une grande fille maintenant mais tu veux toujours jouer (Fillette nous existons) Tu les habilles comme tu veux (Fillette nous existons) Tu leur fais faire ce que tu veux qu’elles fassent (Fillette nous existons) Avant je pensais que nous nous avions un réel amour Mais pour toi je ne suis qu'une autre poupée dans ta maison de poupée Nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Fillette, nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Tu pourrais te sentir saine et sauve Mais ta maison de poupée fillette est en train de s’effondrer Tout a été soigneusement arrangé dans ta tête Chaque détail satisfait à ton propre dessein Chaque pièce est parfaitement à sa place Mais je peux voir la tristesse, chérie, sur ton visage Tu avais un plan et chérie comme un enfant Tu pensais que ce n’était que mode, que style Mais ta petite maison de rêve devient n’importe quoi A tes propres yeux nous rapetissons Nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Fillette nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Tu pourrais te sentir saine et sauve Mais ta maison de poupée fillette est en train de s’effondrer Tout est comme tu en as rêvé qu’il soit Mais il y a quelque chose qui ne va pas que tu ne peux voir Pièce par pièce tu continues à chercher un petit défaut Une fissure quelque part sur le mur de ta maison de poupée Quelque chose, fillette qui donnera une signification à La blessure que tu ressens, chérie, quand nous jouons Tes petites poupées elles ont une emprise sur toi Jusqu'à ce que tu ne sois à ton tour qu'une autre poupée dans ta maison de poupée Nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Fillette, nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Oh nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Tu pourrais te sentir saine et sauve Mais ta maison de poupée fillette est en train de s’effondrer Oh nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Fillette, nous vivons dans une maison de poupée Ouais nous vivons dans une maison de poupée
