dear mr. and/or mrs. sender-
|
we're pleased to inform you that your applications been accepted
|
starting from the time you get this letter
|
your life will be one never-ending
|
ˇ°hope you're feeling betterˇ±
|
you get your choice of anesthetic
|
we'll need to chop your clock off (tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock)
|
it might not be what you expected
|
there is no money back once you've been ripped off, ripped off, ripped off
|
|
today's a very special day
|
the boys'll murder for it but what will the neighbors say
|
it leaves you feeling pretty hollow
|
it might be nice to look at
|
don't forget you're stuck with it tomorrow (and tomorrow, and tomorrow....)
|
|
you're big enough to stop pretending
|
you'll start to really show within a week or so
|
so don't go saying it's just come to your attention
|
you'll get more than you're asking for without the right protection
|
|
today's a very special day
|
and how you'd love to have a little thing with which to play
|
but love wont get you very far
|
today be still your beating heart
|
you'll have to keep on feeding it tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
|
|
|
boys will be boys will be boys will be boys will be boys will be boys will be girls with no warning
|
girls will be girls will be guys will be boys that don't cry over toys that they use to beat girls they despise by the morning
|
they always said that sex would change you...
|
|
no second thoughts the knife is nearing
|
you'll never hear the little pitter patter pitter patter
|
of this little feat of engineering
|
of course i love you and of course it's what's inside that matters
|
but i think the whole charade is ending
|
it seems to me to be the only way to keep from getting
|
caught up in a long life of regretting
|
the doctors said that once you get a taste for it you'll keep on cutting
|
|
but while you happen to be here
|
why don't you whisper all those sweet forevers in my ear
|
stiff upper lip for all this sorrow
|
hurry up and stick it in
|
you never know when it will end
|
tomorrow or tomorrow or tomorrow...
|
|
They always said that sex would change you, change you, change you, change you...
|
