Lyrics by Alanis Morissette
Music by Alanis Morissette & Glen Ballard
intro (off): "The women of this family seem to feel that they owe to the men of the family to look relaxed, restless and attractive at dinner time" (from a 1950s documentary called A Date With Your Family.)
For you, they live
in a quiet monastery
for you, they wear
whatever you want them to as long as it's short they count to ten when you tell them how to drive
and when they're afraid they have you speak for them
All hail the king of Intimidation
I cannot love this scum behavior
For you we wax
we scale and chicken our legs
for you, we'd chew
our nails if we had any left buy fake ones to do it
we counted to ten temporarily and it was
something about how you talk down to me
All hail the king of Intimidation
I cannot love this scum behavior
(Obeyer of Christian behavior?)
There're only compromises for you kind and 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 sin now
You're not happy
You are petty
(You like kidding?)
All hail the king of Intimidation
I cannot love this scum behavior
he does not know what he has wrongly done
forgive his sin the wrong behavior
You are tortured
You are captured
You were busted
We were silenced
You were tested
You knew better
You are lonely (Are you happy?)
Was it worth it?
The song has different versions and sometimes the lyrics change that's why I put some words within (). Carla. 1995-1996
