I want to be the girl with the most cake ~ a line from the song, “Doll Parts”
***
This is the Wiki article about the song:
Courtney Love wrote the song in the fall of 1991 soon after she met Kurt Cobain, and has admitted that its lyrics were about her insecurity of his romantic interest in her.[2] It went on to become one of the band’s most popular songs, peaking on the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks at number 4, and is considered by fans and critics alike as one of Hole’s signature tracks.[3]

[Verse 1]
I am doll eyes, doll mouth, doll legs
I am doll arms, big veins, dog bait
[Chorus]
I want to be the girl with the most cake
I love him so much, it just turns to hate
I fake it so real I am beyond fake
And someday you will ache like I ache
And someday you will ache like I ache
And someday you will ache like I ache
And someday you will ache like I ache
Someday you will ache like I ache
[Verse 2]
I am doll parts, bad skin, doll heart
It stands for knife for the rest of my life
He only loves those things because he loves to see them break
I fake it so real I am beyond fake
And someday you will ache like I ache
And someday you will ache like I ache
Someday you will ache like I ache
And someday you will ache like I ache!
And someday you will ache like I ache!
And someday you will ache like I ache!
And someday you will ache like I ache![Outro]
Someday you will ache like I ache

I love love love this song! 🎶💕
Thanks, Paula! I like it so much, too. There’s quite a few songs of theirs that are really good. 🙂
I know this song so well. I never really thought about what was behind the lyrics. kind of sad really! ❤
Thanks, Mel!
I’ve liked this song since I first heard it years ago. I’ve read a lot about Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain, and they seemed to have such a tragic life together.
Thanks for the suggestion for the prompt, too. I’ve seen a few of the bake off entries – all look so good! 🙂
This is my first time hearing this song and it is really good.
Thanks, Jim!
Courtney Love and her band Hole have some really good songs I’ve heard. This is my favorite one, even if it is sad and tragic.
New one for me. I hate to say it but I have “Hole bias” and have never given them a chance.
Thanks, Li!
Their style of music is not everyone’s cup of tea I’m pretty sure. 🙂
You’re very welcome!
🙂
Great pick for today!
Thanks, Jill!
Glad you liked this one today! I like it a lot, too. 🙂
New-to-me but wow, is it powerful!
Thanks so much, Felicia! I think so, too. Maybe it’s just me, but I can feel so much pain coming through, and having read about their relationship, I’m sure there was.
Her pain and insecurity is so obvious… and sad.
Yes, very much so.
