(Capo 2 Shapes) Verse: E A Chorus: B A 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

you whistle when i trot, but not when i’m galloping is it getting out of hand, am i getting too wild? is it a shame i’m so untamed, so unbridled? i climbed up on my high horse cause it wasn’t safe to come down but i kinda miss the feeling of my feet running on the ground i don’t have no remorse cause now i've got a better view i’ll gladly dismount when i can start counting on you until you stop hurting me, i’ve been saddled with a burden you see that’s the only reason why i climbed up on my high horse you think i’m chomping at the bit i’m just trying to help you out you’re trying to throw me off trying to kick me in the mouth you wish i would just stay in the stable laying in the hay you don’t want no trouble long as i’m not in the way you say, girl i like it fast i say, boy that don’t surprise me for what it’s worth i didn’t even ask but you just gotta advise me i’m not hoping i’m not wishing i’m not asking for permission you keep talking i’m not listening my existence ain’t on trial here comes that crazy bitch again why does she get sensitive when you tell her she’d look better if she’d only fucking smile i didn’t ask you (woah) how you see me (ooh) i don’t need you (boy) just to be me (yeah) you say, girl you’re so emotional i say, boy you’re just afraid of living in a world where you’re losing control you cower in the power that i’m made of but it’s physical, political, emotional and spiritual it’s sexual, perpetual, habitual assault here comes that short skirt argument why does she get sensitive when you put your hands all over her and tell her it’s her fault 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 when 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? |
