Rape Game

By Stuart Davis

So you were

Standing at the gate

Could hardly wait

Parents waving

Water in their eyes

As they said a prayer

For their very special girl

I can guess

Why you'd wanna come

Cuz where you're from

People always told you

How you shine

A face like that

Oughtta be in pictures

Praying that you land with a back bone

But it's gonna snap like a wish bone

When we get our hands on your no-name

Then you're gonna break in the rape game

Your own place

Even if its small

Brittle walls

Cracks in the plaster

Black specks

Crawling on your bed sheets

You laid awake and thought about horses

And going home but you never will

You're here until

Jesus comes or the Beatles are forgotten

(jesus comes with his penis in your bottom)

Maybe there's a switch in your back bone

Flip it and it snaps like a wish bone

When we get our hands on your no-name

Then you're gonna break in the rape game


[simultaneously:]

You're just a girl who needs a scene

And we'd love to see you kneeling

You're just a girl who needs a break

And we'd love to see you broken
