Are you lost little girl
Where's your mama
Good Grief
Skin thick as bricks
Was it karma
How old are ya
Watch your back watch your step
Watch your weight
Watch your words too
They'll come at you with their teeth
And their rhinestone-covered sheaths
Word of warning
Straighten up
Tie your shoelaces up
There's never time to warm up
When the jungle cools down
It's a god d**n cornucopia
Of your serpents and your scorpions
When you fall asleep baby keep an eye wide open hmm
Keep an eye wide open hmm
All the wolves lick your cuts clad in Prada
With white grins and tight grips
Blood oaths and loose lips
Smokin stardust
Mm
Act like some pilgrims
Sing like some psalmists
Kiss like its harmless
I hope you listen
There're too many demons
So girl don't you give in
To all of the voices around you
Saying you can spread your wings
Only if you spread those legs first huh
That's the bread and butter of this place
With butterknives at the ready
To spread the word to save their pretty face
So let these words be your saving grace
There's a much longer trail to blaze
And it's ours
So straighten up
Kamikaze
Don't get sloppy
Don't get sloppy mm
So straighten up
And keep an eye wide open mm
Keep an eye wide open mm
