Getting What He Asked For

[Verse 1]

She's got a tale to tell, well, the detonation

Put a shotgun there in her lap was her patience

Gone? Yeah, you'd better believe it

She'd been holed up here for a decade or two

But made a goddamn choice

End it all, end it now so you'd better quit your complaining

(Yeah, ha-ha)

Through the front door in the kitchen

Heard the door slam, wondered what she's missing

Takes a breath, welcomes death, holds back a cough (One, two, three, four)


[Verse 2]

Well, she'd been dealing with this motherfucking man in her home

Who shouldn't live to see what the ending is like, oh no

She's not letting him get there

If he was man enough for a minute or two

He might've seen this coming from a mile away

Don't you think she's got a good reason?

Through the front door in the kitchen

Heard the door slam, wondered what he's missing

Then she turned tail and took the first door

She made a statement: "You're getting what you asked for"


[Chorus]

Cut him up, cut him up with a hacksaw

In his blood, in his blood's where she'll end up

Ashes and dust, like the whole population of planet Earth

Yeah you bet, that's where they'll join up

"But for the first time in 20 years I'm happy to be in my house

So I might light a cigarette,"

Tells herself, holds back a cough

As the bomb tears her ass off


[Verse 3]

First thing he saw was the glitter of the saw in her hand

He didn't get it at first 'cause he didn't quite understand

Why she even would bother

Tries to lock up the door but he can't

She kicked it in, didn’t matter if he latched it

Didn't speak up, didn't get to, because his head blew apart


[Chorus]

Cut him up, cut him up with a hacksaw

In his blood, in his blood's where she'll end up

Ashes and dust, like the whole population of planet Earth

Yeah you bet, that's where they'll join up

But as the world ends, it’s hard to pretend

She got her way, and it's a satisfying end

Closes her eyes, takes a drag, has a last thought

As she climbs off the carpet


[Outro]

Ears still ringing from the detonation

And a shotgun sitting to the side of a cut up dude

It's not so fucking depressing
