letra de blood in the bathwater (she called herself amanda) - not the band

Loading...

she called herself amanda and spoke english quite well
she was born in scandinavia but you really couldn’t tell
she read shakespeare and keats and had a thing for snakes
she said they’re easy to handle in times when everything breaks

she said, i’m half swedish, half norwegian and all crazy
but one thing i ain’t sir is shiftless and lazy
but employers want papers or you’ll end up below minimum wage
sixty hours a week and a face that looks twice your age

and you can employ me and reap profits out of me
i’ll always work hard and be the best that i can be
throw me a knuckleball i’ll knock it straight out of the park
give me a candle and i’ll light it with my own spark

money ain’t no issue but i wanna use my brain
now i’m weary with labor and faint with pain
if i had a great big fortune i’d just give it all away
i’d rather live beneath a bridge than take part in that game

i believe you’ve got to compromise with morals to do well
rich men walk like camels through needles on their ways to h-ll
so i’m another jarred pendulum swinging to a boss man’s beat
a mental fugitive trying to get back on her feet

do you understand the reference? she said and emptied her gl-ss
she took another hit and so i made my p-ss
she crossed her legs and laughed and smacked me with a book
that’s all she wrote buddy but you can have a little look

she showed me the goods that i would never get
her drawings, her scars and a whole new alphabet
i got to see her soul and a wee bit more
and i went home slightly wiser than before

i guess it wouldn’t hurt to get a bit educated
the ones who own knowledge will always feel liberated
and now i feel sure that everything comes with a cost
in the end we all lose but somehow i feel i’ve already lost
