Spoken: the women of this family seem to feel that they owe it to the men of the family to look relaxed, rested, and attractive at dinnertime.
For you, they live in a quiet monastery.
for you, they wear whatever you want them to, as long as it is short.
they count to ten when you tell them how to drive,
and when they're afraid, they let you speak for them.
chorus:
all hail the king of intimidation.
my daddy loves your christian behavior.
for you, we wax; we scale, chicken our legs.
for you, we'd chew our nails if we had any left; buy fake ones to do it.
we contradict him temporarily,
and it was something about how you talk down to me.
chorus
the role of compromises for the family, you don't want some.
there's only so much we can do to make you rest assured.
i am single.
i am weary.
you're just jealous.
you're just confused.
you're just hungry.
you'll be seen out.
you're not happy.
you are petty.
all hail the king of intimidation.
my daddy loves your christian behavior.
he does not know what he has wrongly done.
forgive his ignorant behavior.
you are tortured.
you are captured.
you are busted.
we were silent.
you were tested.
you did better.
you are lonely.
was it worth it?
