(what if your partner's family hated you as passionately as you loved... Then it ended? A song lyric)
Duck and cover -
She's not your lover
And her family
Been waiting for this day
They'd gladly slaughter
The defiler of their daughter
She dumped you,
Now they're free to make you pay
She wasn't normal in any way
Kept scorpions and slept by day
But you ignored it cause she is so hot
Dangerous and classy- everything you're not.
She took you home to meet her folks
They showed you photos of her other blokes
The icy tones,the hatred in their stares
Alive or dead - to them it's splitting hairs
Duck and cover -
She's not your lover
And her family
Are gunning for your head
They'd gladly slaughter
The defiler of their daughter
She dumped you,
Now they're free to kill you dead
Whose were those footsteps in the empty street?
The bitter malice in her father's feet?
The razor blades in ma's apple pie
Her sister's tarot says that you should die
Bridge: They been cursing
Your 'better or for worse'ing
Sickened by your
Bareness in her bed.
You tried to tell her
But she said that you were petty
Bring on the bullets
Raining down with the confetti
But that's all over, no more ball and chain
They want to chain your balls-to bring you pain
She took the car, her clothes, a kitchen knife
They want to take it all, and then your life
Duck and cover -
She's not your lover
And her family
Are gunning for your head
They'd gladly slaughter
The defiler of their daughter
She dumped you,
Now they're free to kill you dead
They dug a flowerbed - full six feet deep
The bedroom handle turns while you're asleep
But you have locks and contacts on your side
That's how their water came to mix with cyanide
