1. she eats her dinner hovered over the sink
bends down to the faucet when she wants a drink
she don't sit at the table, pour herself some wine
she don't love herself enough, she won't give herself the time

she grew up faster than most kids
now all the boys treat her like her daddy did
as far as she's concerned she's just rotting on the vine
she don't love herself enough, she won't give herself the time

she don't love herself
she won't give herself the time
she don't need nobody else 
telling her she ain't worth a dime
the only hand she's been dealt 
is the hurting kind
the battle scars are hard inside her heart so 
she keeps drawing deeper battle lines

2. she makes her money taking off her clothes
it ain't what she likes it's just what she knows
she ain't smiled for real since '89
she don't love herself enough, she won't give herself the time

she don't love herself
she won't give herself the time
she don't need nobody else 
telling her she ain't worth a dime
the only hand she's been dealt 
is the hurting kind
the battle scars are hard inside her heart so 
she keeps drawing deeper battle lines

3. no one's coming to save the day
they would've come by now if it worked that way
she's just flickering out like a neon sign
she don't love herself enough, she won't give herself the time

​it's been halloween ever since 2016
trump makes freddy seem like a nice daydream (boo)
talk about doom & gloom when you can't afford the emergency room
and you're terrified w/ chills cause your wages won't pay the bills
what big lies they tell
i'd rather live at the bates motel
than watch my country slip away
to the nra & the kkk
what big hypocrites
getting rich for the apocalypse
i gotta say, it's a scary day
now that putting kids in cages is the christian way
it's been halloween ever since 2016
trump makes freddy seem like a nice daydream (boo)
talk about horrifying putting predators in power and ignoring science
when every fox news line sends a shiver up & down my spine (boo)
what big lies they have
i'd rather jason chase me in a hockey mask
than watch rights get stripped away
for brown, trans, female, homeless, poor, or gay
what big hypocrites
placing blame on the journalists
aspiring to be like our enemies
& conspiring to murder our democracy
it's been halloween ever since 2016
trump makes freddy seem like a nice daydream (boo)
here's what we're gonna do listen up now i'm talking to you
this red's gonna kill us dead so please vote blue

she is dried out like the desert
she is famished, all but vanished by design
and her hide out is her cactus heart
her own hand grenade, a barricade of spines
 
the sands of time repeating
she’s seen suffering before
her future takes a beating for
some man, some god, some war
 
she is minding her own business
steadfastly building castles of sand
she is blinded by a raging son
who demolishes and calls it all his land
 
those poor holy rolling soldiers’ plights
they can’t live without their virgins and whores
to lift their strengths and spirits to fight for
some man, some god, some war
 
we are sucking out the venom
of poisonous scorpions and snakes
we are bucking this ecosystem
til our mother’s deserts are our daughter’s lakes
 
oh, wondrous, thunderous women
together too loud to ignore
no more curtsies at the mercy of
some man, some God, some war

*written to the tune of “Part of Your World” from The Little Mermaid
 
i guess it's trump, what a crushing defeat
can't believe he's allowed in the president's seat
can't everyone see he's an ass - an ass who hates everything?
look at his team, dangers untold
how many disasters can one cabinet hold?
somebody pass me a drink, at this point i’ll drink anything
 
he hates brown people, gays, the disabled
he hates women and science and more
i was sure no one thought he was able
i was wrong, now I'm scared, of what's in store
 
i wanna be where the sheeple aren't
i wanna see humanity advancing
exercising your, what do you call it? oh - brain
grabbing pussies got trump this far
not paying taxes or his employees
bragging about, what's that word again? rape
sexual assault is not fucking fun, just ask his victims, every last one
the jock gets away and the best we can say:
rape's just part of our world
 
what would i give if i could live where people were smarter?
not pray away gay, or get in the way of a parenthood planned
don't you understand this is a man who has objectified his daughter? still there are women who voted him in, it's unreal as his tan
 
i'm not ready to reap what the people sow
we've got some questions, let's find the answers
starting with lessons we've already, i don't know…learned
when's it our turn? we know what we need:
to live in a land ruled by love and not greed
out of the debris, how about you and me take charge of our world?
