Caroline laughs and
It's raining all day
She loves to be one of the girls
She lives in the place
In the side of our lives
Where nothing is
Ever put straight
She turns herself round
And she smiles and she says
'This is it'
'That's the end of the joke'
And loses herself
In her dreaming and sleep
And her lovers walk
Through in their coats
[Chorus: ]
She's...
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
All of her lovers
All talk of her notes
And the flowers
That they never sent
And wasn't she easy
And isn't she
Pretty in pink
The one who insists
He was first in the line
Is the last to
Remember her name
He's walking around
In this dress
That she wore
She is gone
But the joke's the same
[Chorus: ]
Caroline talks to you
Softly sometimes
She says
'I love you' and
'Too much'
She doesn't have anything
You want to steal
Well
Nothing you can touch
She...waves
She buttons your shirt
The traffic
Is waiting outside
She hands you his coat
She gives you her clothes
These cars collide
[Chorus: ]
It's raining all day
She loves to be one of the girls
She lives in the place
In the side of our lives
Where nothing is
Ever put straight
She turns herself round
And she smiles and she says
'This is it'
'That's the end of the joke'
And loses herself
In her dreaming and sleep
And her lovers walk
Through in their coats
[Chorus: ]
She's...
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
Pretty in pink
Isn't she?
All of her lovers
All talk of her notes
And the flowers
That they never sent
And wasn't she easy
And isn't she
Pretty in pink
The one who insists
He was first in the line
Is the last to
Remember her name
He's walking around
In this dress
That she wore
She is gone
But the joke's the same
[Chorus: ]
Caroline talks to you
Softly sometimes
She says
'I love you' and
'Too much'
She doesn't have anything
You want to steal
Well
Nothing you can touch
She...waves
She buttons your shirt
The traffic
Is waiting outside
She hands you his coat
She gives you her clothes
These cars collide
[Chorus: ]

i thought they were like trading clothes idk~
Though that one's a bit -too- dark for the time period, IMO...I mean, this was originally the '80s, when you could be forced to testify before Congress for writing a song about throat surgery. But given the Dresden Dolls' lyrical darkness in the regular songs, it certainly makes a lot more sense this way.
I love this song. It's obviously about a girl who's easy to sleep with, but it's not making her sound bad at all. Infact, to me, it makes her seem very innocent.
