"Lelah"

Once upon a time

A princess was imprisoned

By her stupid, rich, right-wing parents

And their fucking shit religion

 

They told her she was wrong to feel

Like God made a mistake

For that princess had been always trapped

By the male walls He did make

 

She asked her parents for the key

Asked for them to help her change

But they locked her in another cage

For months, she was estranged

 

Prince charming was not on his way

For her parents warned him not

They stuffed her in a prison cage

And watched her fucking rot

 

So rivers poured from her sad eyes

They all claimed her diseased

The only way to leave was up

Singing: "Fix society, please."
