Sing for my supper.
Sing for my lover.
For the boy who's made me his toy.
Who's made a joke of my old joy.
Chorus:
And it was a stupid, stupid girl
that came to this world.
Thinking of her golden knight,
her prince with shining cloak of white.
Believing that the songs were right,
but songs are only lies for children.
Rape is for women.
Rape me of my innocence.
Take away my childishness.
Leave me nothing.
Leave me crushed.
Leave me to return to dust.
And I keep my eyes down.
I try not not to frown.
Try not to cry before them.
Still have to pretend that I adore him.
Off with my father's head,
my beloved said.
“Mercy, mercy,” I pled
He made me look at it, rotting, mounted on a pike.
Mercy. Yeah That sounds about right.
And I have to sing for my supper.
Sing for the boy who killed my father.
For the boy who's made me into his toy.
Who's made a joke of my old joy.
Someday I'll fly away,
someday I'll escape this cage even if it means death.
Every note of every song another wasted breath.
Chorus
Someday I'll fly away,
someday I'll escape this cage even if it means death.
Every note of every song another wasted breath.
