Sleater-Kinney & Fred Schneider - Angry Inch lyrics

rate me

My sex change operation got botched

My guardian angel fell asleep on the watch

Now all I got is a Barbie doll crotch

I've got an angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

I've got an angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

I've got an angry inch

I'm from the land where you still hear the cries

I had to get out, had to sever all ties

I changed my name and assumed a disguise

I've got an angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

I've got an angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

I've got a, I've got an angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

The train is coming and I'm tied to the track

I try to get up but I can't get no slack

I've got an angry inch

My mother made my tits outta clay

(Tits of clay)

My boyfriend told me that he'd take me away

(Take me away)

He dragged me to the doctor one day

I've got an angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

I got an angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

I got an angry inch

(Long story short)

Yeah, long story short

When I woke up from the operation

I was bleeding down there

I was bleeding from a gash between my legs

It's my first day as a woman

And already it's that time of the month

But two days later the hole closed up

The wound healed and I was left

With a one inch mound of flesh

Where my penis used to be

Where my vagina never was

It was a one inch mound of flesh

With a scar running down it

Like a sideways grimace on an eyeless face

It was just a little bulge

It was an angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

The train is coming and I'm tied to the track

I try to get up but I can't get no slack

I got an angry inch, angry inch

Six inches forward and five inches back

Stay under cover 'til the night turns to black

I got my inch and I'm set to attack

Angry inch, angry inch
