Radium Girls lyrics

Your own eyelash Dipped in radium Careful fingers painting in the lines Cheerful glow to indicate the time Undark Splattered with light Down to the waist The brush sweeps, mind fleets Still it won't fade It creeps in and in and never out Now pretty girls glow underground Tick tock - your hand on every wrist And these sweet young girls Were taught to trust Lip tip, put fire in your cheek It grows dim Undark, undark, undark Un-warned Un-armed Purposely uninformed Girls who glow and can absorb the light Unaware of catacombs inside Make a small point Keep the point tight Focus your eyes And draw the line
