Lyrics

    goddamn your righteous hand
    i eat innocent meat
    the housewife i will beat
    the prolife i will kill
    what you won't do i will
    i bash myself to sleep
    what you sow i will reap
    i scar myself you see
    i wish i wasn't me
    i am the little stick
    you stir me into shit
    i hate therefore i am
    goddamn your righteous hand
    goddamn, goddamn,
    goddamn, goddamn
    pseudo-morals work real well
    on the talk shows for the weak
    but your selective judgements
    and goodguy badges
    don't mean a fuck to me
    i throw a little fit
    i slit my teenage wrist
    the most that I can learn
    is in records that you burn
    get your gunn, get your gunn,
    get your gunn, get your gunn
    pseudo morals work real well
    on the talk shows for the weak
    but your selective judgements
    and goodguy badges
    don't mean a fuck to me
    i am the vhs
    record me with your fist
    you want me to save the world
    i'm just a little girl
    pseudo-morals work real well
    on the talk shows for the weak
    but your selective judgements
    and goodguy badges
    don't mean a fuck to me
    get your gunn, get your gunn,
    get your gunn, get your gunn... get
