White Men In Black Suits |
I am just a boy working in a record store |
Yes I moved to San Francisco just to see what I could be |
I am a loser geek, crazy with an evil streak |
Yes, I do believe there is a violent thing inside of me |
She is just a girl, she is doing what she can |
She dances topless when she’s not playing in her band |
Such a pretty girl, happy in an ugly place |
Watching all the pretty people doing lots of ugly things |
I think it’s getting better for the two of us |
Yes, I think it’s getting better almost everyday |
I could give a damn for what those people say |
All I wanna do is lose myself in your room |
All you want is just a slow fuck in the afternoon |
I still see those scary guys when I am all alone at night |
I kiss the ring you gave me, then I swing with all my might |
I think it’s getting better for the two of us |
I think it’s getting easier for you and me to agree |
That the white men in the black suits, they are diminishing |
Yes, I think they are diminishing |
Yes, I think that they diminish you |
And they diminish me |
I think they are diminishing |
You known sometimes I hear those people say |
Yeah, she takes the bus over to the north side of the city |
She goes to work stripping for the rich white men |
All the words they give her make her feel so soft and pretty |
She wears them but they never ever seem to fit |
Yes, I think it’s getting better for the two of us |
Yes, I think it’s getting better in the worst way |
I refuse to be afraid of almost anyone |
Afraid of all the things they do, all the words that they say |
Let’s live the way we want to live and hope they go away |
Ooh, I really hope they go away |
Ooh, I really hope they find a nice place |
I hope they find it somewhere |
I hope they go away |
I can still hear all those people say |
I can still hear all those people say |
I can hear those people say |
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah |
I can still hear all those people say |
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah |
I can still hear all those people say |
