Oh, Dolores Lyrics

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, Dolores
You've come undone
It happens every time, now isn’t it a crime
How they drag you down, Dolores?

[Verse 1]
Girl you kill it if you coulda
Get a grip, you know you shoulda
Woulda gone down different
Till it all went wrong
All caught up in fight or flight
Down below or in the heights
Happened at the speed of light
The horror of it all

[Chorus]
Oh Dolores, you've come undone
It happens every time, now isn't it a crime
How they drag you down, Dolores?
How they drag you down, Dolores (Ooh)

[Verse 2]
Crossing over into something
Making it all outta nothing
If [?] meant to reinvent
You take the fall
[Chorus]
Oh Dolores, you’ve come undone
It happens every time, now isn't it a crime
How they drag you down, Dolores?
How they drag you down, Dolores
How they drag you down, Dolores

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
