Future Soundtrack for America movie - Off With Your Head lyrics

rate me

Song by Sleater-Kinney<br /><br>

There are many things I'm tired of<br>

That's what she said<br>

So she took out a knife<br>

And said off with my head<br>

What's the use in knowing that the rest of you's dead<br>

What good is a brain if it's all you got left<br>

<br>

There's a part that you have missed<br>

Don't need proof that I exist<br>

You don't know I'm far away<br>

From those awful things you say<br>

<br>

What you put at the top of the neck to replace the skull<br>

A balloon that you found at the shopping mall<br>

Took out a pen, drew on a happy face<br>

Now she walks around like her own parade<br>

<br>

There are words you'll never hear<br>

You've got poison in your ear<br>

You don't know I'm far away<br>

From those awful things you say<br>

<br>

Come on I want a new reason to feel<br>

A way to know that all I see is real<br>

Free from all your toxic melody<br>

Free from all the sadness that I see<br>

<br>

(Carrie's part:<br>

Are you sick of your skin<br>

Here's a bag to bury you in<br>

You've got a lot of nerve<br>

And you'll get what you deserve)<br>

<br>

Sing me something good this time<br>

Tired of wicked lullabies<br>

You don't know I'm far away<br>

From those awful things you say<br>

<br>

(I'm a living time bomb, baby<br>

Come light my fuse<br>

Go ahead and call me crazy<br>

But that's overused.)<br>
