Daria

When you tried to kiss me

I only bit your tongue

When you tried to get me together

I only come 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

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 loves 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

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

Daria

Daria

Daria

I won't be soothed

I won't be soothed
