"I FELL ASLEEP AT THE TABLE" lyrics

"I FELL ASLEEP AT THE TABLE"

Little girl, little girl
Have you any wool?
From the years of growing in the dark
Did it make you nice and tall?
Little girl, little girl
Did you obey their every rule?
Too young to know
No matter what they'll scold your every move

This house is full of fucking rats
I can smell em when they
Eat, shit, fight for scraps
Pardon me, my disease

I'm fucking sorry I fell asleep at the table
And ruined every plan you ever made for me
What did you expect from me
I'm sorry, I left my shoes on at the table
Forgetting every rule you ever set for me
What did you expect from me

There's no hope for me
Can't you see they say I'm a freak
I don't even fold my hands
Before we sit down to eat
'Cause your god can't hear me without perfect teeth
Your button down, thin pin stripes and plastic conceit

This house is full of fucking rats
I can smell em when they
Eat, shit, fight for scraps
Pardon me, my disease

I'm fucking sorry I fell asleep at the table
And ruined every plan you ever made for me
What did you expect from me
I'm sorry, I left my shoes on at the table
Forgetting every rule you ever set for me
What did you expect from me

Little girl, can't you see
You're just a menace to society
Little girl, can't you see
They don't play nice with rats like me

I'm fucking sorry I fell asleep at the table
And ruined every plan you ever made for me
What did you expect from me
I'm sorry, I left my shoes on at the table
Forgetting every rule you ever set for me
What did you expect from me

(What did you expect from me)
