Lyrics Youth Decay - Sleater-Kinney

Youth Decay

Acid tooth
It’s got nothing to do with you
But if you wanna watch me chew
My teeth are cutting you out
Stomach ache
Well, it must be in your head
It must be something that I did
Food just doesn’t seem to work out
Am I rotting out?
Daddy says I got my mama’s mouth
I’m all about a forked tongue and a dirty house
Mom has said
Yes, this happened to me long ago
And you’ve got the same hurting, oh
But no one would believe me when I said
Close my mouth
Was I born to accommodate?
I’m so good at playing dead
Words just don’t seem to come out
Am I rotting out?
Daddy says I got my mama’s mouth
I’m all about a forked tongue and a dirty house
Should I eat something sweet instead?
Wash away all those things we said
How many doctors will it take before I disintegrate?
Acid tooth
It’s got nothing to do with you
But if you wanna watch me chew
My teeth are cutting you out
Stomach ache
Well, it must be in your head
It must be something that I did
Food just doesn’t seem to work out
Am I rotting out?
Daddy says I got my mama’s mouth
I’m all about a forked tongue and a dirty house
Am I rotting out?
Am I rotting?
Am I rotting?
Am I rotting?
Am I rotting?
Am I rotting?
Am I rotting?
Am I rotting out?
