Bratmobile - Eating Toothpaste lyrics

Once upon a time there were 2 little girls

And they said how are we gonna make it in this world?

We're eating toothpaste and blue playdough,

We got a dress up box with no place to go

Alright, now it's your turn

It's alright and we're taking that turn

You're telling everyone I had too many shoes

A paradise with parents that we never got to choose

Well you never knew about the life I had.

Worst of all you'll see someday

Is the things in life that got taken away

But you can't feel how hard this is.

You don't know what it's like to be me

You just know what it's like to be mean

Don't come to my shows no more no

Don't come near me -- no-no-no

Alright, now it's low tide

It's alright now we're surfing that tide

I'm sure it's nothing glamorous to you

Fighting and throwing up, a gun for two

Silence and shame, no one to blame.

We grew up all girl somehow

If feels like men crawling over me now

My body my brain my fingernails.

We don't like you anymore

And we don't care now what's the score

We can see you hiding there

In sold-out shows but I don't care

Alright, now it's your turn

It's alright and we're taking that turn

Alright, now it's low tide

It's alright and we're surfing that tide

You don't know what its like to be me

You just know what it's like to be mean

Don't come to my shows no more no

Don't come near me-- no
