Daria

Cake

When you tried to kiss me



I only bit your tongue



When you tried to get me together



I only came undone



When you tried to tell me



The one for me was you



I was in your mattress



Back in 1982



Daria



I won't be soothed



Daria (yeah)



I won't be soothed over



Like smoothed over



Like milk silk a bedspread or a quilt



Icing on a cake



Or a serene translucent lake



Daria



Daria



Daria



I won't be soothed



I won't be soothed



When you tried to tell me



Of all the love you had



I was cleaning oil from beaches



Seeing only what was bad



When you tried to feed me



I only shut my mouth



Food got on your apron



And you told me to get out



Daria



I won't be soothed



Daria (yeah)



I won't be soothed over,



Like smoothed over,



Like milk, silk, a bedspread, or a quilt



Icing on a cake



Or a serene translucent lake



Daria

Daria



I won't be soothed



I won't be soothed
