mama always told me not to need a man but one thing i should know is that i have the upper hand & if i do indulge in showing him my plans the one thing he should know is i can also wear the pants with my fucking heels on looking like a real strong woman any daddy would proud to say i'm his you just stepped into the kill zone just keep it real have you calling me your daddy i just tell it like it is & i find it funny ’cause men try to be something they could never be 'cause us woman are a totally different pedigree you won't believe how i can be but you may see 'cause you could be my muse

who are you to tell me how to keep myself afloat i tread the water all the while you stuck in the knife that you held at my back

life was supposed to be a film, was supposed to be a thriller, was supposed to end in tears but life could be nothing but a joke, could be nothing but a con where's my unhappy ending gone? life was supposed to be a film, was supposed to be a thriller, was supposed to end in blood but life could be nothing but a joke, a sentimental con where's my unhappy ending gone? where's my unhappy ending gone?
here is the part where you save me, here is the scene where you save the day why can't the ending be happy? why must it always resolve this way?
a cabin in the woods somewhere our hero strokes his lover's hair says "don't worry, love, we're almost done" says "i could have really been someone" outside, they surround the house with pistols drawn it's a waiting game until dawn sergeant says "he can't go on, we know now that he can't go on"
she homed with thieves kicked up dirty leaves she was a maniac no one's heart attack she got around slept on the bad side of town she was cooler than you way cooler than me she was true, all blinded & bruised she didn't give a fuck no she had given up she was alive she was caught on fire she was everything she was all of this
she opened up & laid it all right there she said, "i don't mind no, no, i don't care i'll help you shovel out my shallow hole & i know i know they're threatening but at least we're not the ones carrying such heavy heavy heavy stoning stones & yeah i know they'll get you down they'll do you in & they'll drag it out 'cause me & you, we are one of a kind"
i hate the things i think about you when i'm all alone i know you're tough but i've been gone for so long i play the memories of you inside my head so all those pictures of us burn & radiate watch the clouds, & i'm falling, falling through the cracks head beats & the heart is pounding fast off the ground into the starry dark, into your arms i'm falling, ooh
i don't know why they are calling on the radio they know i'm here just out of sight i don't know why they are calling on the radio he's by my side, & i know i'm right
my brain, my body's fried i've got to stay alive i've gotta take a chance & keep on moving keep on moving
what a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way what a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you what a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way what a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you, &
no, i don't want to fall in love no, i don't want to fall in love with you
this world is only gonna break your heart nobody loves no one
