Parents [remix] lyrics

Blah!

I was born in a messed up century

My favourite flavoured sweets are raspberry amphetamines

I bought a car, Beretta, age 16

I brush my teeth with bleach 'cause I ain’t got time for cavities

My daddy put a gun to my head

Said, "If you kiss a boy, I'm gonna shoot you dead"

So I tied him up with gaffer tape and I locked him in a shed

Then I went out to the garden and I fucked my best friend

'Cause my high hopes are getting low

Because these people are so old

The way they think about it all

If I tried, I would never know

My high hopes are getting low

But I know I’ll never be alone

It's alright, we'll survive

'Cause parents ain't always right

I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I-I-I-I

I'm sick and tired of women bein' labeled as the villain

When in reality all we want is equality

'Cause it’s a dress not a yes, I won’t say it again

Your sexist ideology, that respect is earned by modesty, yeah

Women are powerful, beautiful, wonderful

We'll scream it at the top of our lungs

Our body, our choice

All together, use your voice

’Cause my high hopes are getting low

Because these people are so old

The way they think about it all

If I tried, I would never know

My high hopes are getting low

But I know I'll never be alone

It's alright, we'll survive

’Cause parents ain't always right

I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I-I-I-I

Tick, tock, stop the clock

Because I get the feeling that I'm gonna get shot

Tick, tock, stop the clock

Because I get the feeling that I'm gonna get shot

My high hopes are getting low

Because these people are so old

The way they think about it all

If I tried, I would never know

High hopes are getting low

But I know I'll never be alone

It's alright, we'll survive

'Cause parents ain't always right

I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I, I-I-I-I

I-I-I-I-I-I-I
