" "
Nice girls, not one with a defect,
Cellophane shrink-wrapped, so correct.
Red dogs under illegal legs,
She looks so good that he gets down and begs.<p>She is watching the detectives.
"Ooh, it's so cute."
She's watching the detectives.
When they shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot.
They beat him up until the teardrops start,
But he can't be wounded 'cause he's got no heart.

I took my better nature out, drowned it in a babbling stream/took the blossom of my youth and blew it all to smithereens.

Alison, I know this world is killing you. Oh, Alison, my aim is true. My aim is true.

The only two things that motivate me and that matter to me are revenge
and guilt.
