Simon Says

When I was a little girl my dad bought me a guitar
And then I learned the world wouldn't let me get that far
They'd say it's okay to play as long as you don't get too good
Stay in your place with your feet on the ground the way the girls should
Simon says girls sit down
Simon says don't be too loud
Simon says girls in the crowd:
Play the game or else you're out!
I plugged it in and I strummed away down in the basement
Dad would cheer me on from the stairway as I went
Stepped to the scene and found out it's a god damn boy's club
Dreamt of the day I would play on the stage home at the pub
Yeah
Simon says girls sit down
Simon says don't be too loud
Simon says girls in the crowd:
Play the game or else you're out!
I spent all my time and energy
Trying not to want this like I do
Now I kick this beehive willingly
Yeah this time I follow through
I wanna thank my dear old dad
Because he believed in me
Forget about what Simon says
Stick it to society
Simon says girls sit down
Simon says don't be too loud
Simon says girls in the crowd:
Play the game or else you're out!

Neon God

I need more out of this life
Find another vice
devices, tap, touch, type and swipe
Take another night
Tick tik tok click click clock
Feels right
Waste another day
Neon god that we made
'Til doomsday
HEY
Give me death or give me likes
Tag me in the post
Measure my soul in gold bytes
Document the day
My week, my month, and my life
Put it on display
Compare to validate
Validate
ME
Does everyone feel it in the air?
Or are they online?
Should I just live my life to share?
Or is my time mine?
Oh
HELP
Go plead, be on your knees for wifi
Never disappear
Devise significance despite
Everything you fear
Desperate for legacy divine
Say you'll find it here
In ones and zeroes and tears
HEY

No Baby Envy

Please don't pressure me to make children
When the tv's the one who'll raise them
It's not selfish to not want babies
Working two jobs can barely feed me
When are you having kids,
No baby envy
You're running out of time
No baby envy
My body's not your human factory
No baby envy
My ability to procreate doesn't define me
Noooo
How they even stand to have a chance,
Living on this burning planet
Within this corrupt society
Please don't ask me
(Please dont ask me)
Broken bones and broken hearts
are supposed to be the worry
Now all they face is prejudice
and financial insecurity
When are you having kids,
No baby envy
You're running out of time
No baby envy
My body's not your human factory
No baby envy
My ability to procreate doesn't define me
Please don't beg me
to make you a grandparent
you left us a world where
It's a luxury to pay our rent
Afraid they'll get stabbed
Afraid they'll get shot
They can't call for help
Cause all we got is crooked cops
When are you having kids,
No baby envy
You're running out of time
No baby envy
My body's not your human factory
No baby envy
My ability to procreate doesn't define me, no

I don't need to read the article to know you're white
Twenty something bible-thumping and a hard-knock life
They knew you loved guns and that was no offense
Cause people need an AR-15 for self-defense
He had a bad day he slipped through the cracks
As if he wasn't harmful til the day of the attacks
Don't play the blame game he's sick in the head
Have a little understanding while you bury your dead
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Racist sexist terrorist
They say snowflakes get offended bout a harmless joke
Got your panties in a knot he's only blowin' smoke
It doesn't mean a thing if it's at your expense
He would never hurt a fly and that's just common sense
But his joke has a name and that name goes on a list
Of all the people that he blames whenever he gets pissed
Refuse to believe he'd ever take it too far
With his list and a rifle in the trunk of his car
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Racist sexist terrorist
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Domestic terrorist
Call him what he is
Racist sexist white supremacist
Bigoted ignorant misogynistic trash
