lyrics

it's nothing new c) 2022 puppeteer


gape and rape
incinerate
women
risk death to incubate
children
oh, it's nothing new

close the doors
to ambitious ladies
call them whores,
killers of babies
oh, it's nothing new

daughter, sister, mother, wife
how dare you claim the right to life
your place is back
on your back,
or scrubbing floors blue and black

forget
all you've done for us
regret
you found your clitoris
oh, it's nothing new

god's puppets need you to breed them
so don't get too attached to freedom
oh, it's nothing new

did Jesus really bring the law
upon the sinful
and the poor
tell me, faithful,
teach me more
so i know what good your faith's for

danelectro guitar sings
