"Patriarch On A Vespa" lyrics
"Patriarch On A Vespa"
Promiscuous makes an entrance
Her mouth is full of questions
Are we all brides to be?
Are we all designed to be confined?
Buy ourselves chastity belts and lock them
Organize our lives and lose the key
Our faces all resemble dying roses
From trying to fix it
Trying to fix it
Trying to fix it
When instead, we should break it
We've got to break it before it breaks us
Fear of pretty houses and their porches
Fear of biological wrist watches
Fear of comparison shopping
Dogs on leashes behind fences, barking
Pretty little pillows on floral couches
Until our faces all resemble dying roses
Stop trying to fix it
Patriarch on a Vespa
Runs a red and ends up
Crushed under the wheel

Sleater-Kinney - "One Beat" I'm a bubble in a sound wave
A sonic push for energy
Exploding like the sun
A flash of clean light hope

Cut you down to size and watch you try to run away
'Cause your inconsistency is enough to drive a person insane
Some things we don't say
