King of Intimidation

King of intimidation

Spoken : The women of this family seem to feel that they owe it to the men

of the family to look relaxed, rested, and attractive at dinnertime.

For you they live in a quiet monastery

For you they wear whatever you want them to as long as it is short

They count to ten when you tell them how to drive

And when they're afraid they let you speak for them

All hail the king of intimidation

Mocker of good Christian behavior

For you we wax, we scale, and chicken our legs

For you we chew our nails if we had any left buy fake ones to do it

We counted to 10 temporarily

And it was somethin' about how you talk down to me

All hail the king of intimidation

Mocker of good Christian behavior

The roles of compromising for the family, you don't want some

There's only so much we can do to make your dress short

I am single

I am weary

You're just jealous

You're just confused

You're just hungry

You're in sin now

You're not happy

You are petty

All hail the king of intimidation

Mocker of good Christian behavior

He knows not of what he has wrongly done

Forgive his ignorant behavior

You are tortured

You are captured

You are busted

We were silent

You were tested

You knew better

You are lonely

Was it worth it?

La,la,la
