Aletta - Self Defense Family

Simple folk need their love songs

idiots love an anthem

Dinner bell for the dumb

cattle-call for morons

Repeat a woman’s name

keep your verses vague

Motivate yourself a singalong

Oh, Aletta, you have such nice skin Oh, Aletta, nose-down in a tailspin

Caltrops for your racing thoughts

Spiked pit for your feelings

Your stupid head hunted to extinction

Your wood-paneled brain

stress cracks in the frame

Mold and holes in the drywall

Oh Aletta, you have such nice skin Oh, Aletta, nose-down in a tailspin

The ground tore open

the Devil and I locked eyes

He said, «son, I wanna support ya

but it’s like you don’t even try»

I waited at the pier for you to resurface I waited but you didn’t notice
