about
this song is about when you know you could have a really good career and everyone keeps telling you it's important to have kids but you don't care cuz you're all about that money baby
lyrics
how long until you feel safe
feel elated, the pain in your chest
will subside when you find
the right person to do it
at least that's what they tell me
my health is dependent on men
my health is dependent on them
my house is an asset
i know i'll lose half of my life if i sign
i make more money than you and it's mine
i know i would start stupid fights just to cry
i know i would start hearing you in my mind
i'm fine
what the fuck is the point if you'll just be a housewife
convince my boyfriend that he'll be the housewife
as long as i live i will not be a housewife
i know i'll still be a motherfucking housewife
i dont need to borrow blue
i don't need to borrow blue
i dont need to borrow blue
i don't need to borrow blue i'm a flower girl
how many nights do i sit up and wonder
i'm 19, then 20, then ancient alone
how many fights before we turn the light off
sit tight and think about
dying alone
sit tight and think about
dying alone
sit tight and think about
dying alone
sit tight and think about
spying, the lying, the absence of heat in my bed,
the lead in the tunnel, i fantasize covered inblood
if i'm ever a housewife one day i might do it
if i'm ever a housewife i know that i'll do it
if i'm ever a housewife i'm biting a bullet
if i'm ever a housewife i'm taking a bullet
if i'm ever a housewife i'm taking a bullet
i don't need to borrow blue x4
i don't need to borrow blue, i'm a flower girl x4
how long until the postpartum depression
how long until i hate my kid
i hate the feel of his head on my chest
stop fucking biting my breast, i need rest
and how do i know that my child won't kill me
and how do i know that my husband won't kill me
and how do i know that i won't get to thinking again
about the head
slammed
hard against the counter, explosion
i don't want to kill but then why do i see it
they ask me if i didn't want it
then why is there blood on the mattress
manic from the house life
seeking a thrill or neglect?
a pill, then it's done
but then all i ever was was a housewife
i don't need to borrow blue x8
i don't need to borrow blue, i'm a flower girl x8
