Wolves 05:45
Have they always been there? Am I just noticing them first? Is it something I should get used to? I don't which one is worse There are wolves in the garden, they are hanging on corners everywhere Blood in their mouths now, we've been driving them out, shout: yeah So be strong and take heart, be light if you must fight the dark Blood in their mouths now, we've been driving them out, shout: yeah Shout: yeah Shout: yeah Such righteous anger to those who hunt the innocent We can't stand still after we've seen it and let all the darkness win There are wolves in the garden, they are hanging on corners everywhere Blood in their mouths now, we've been driving them out, shout: yeah So be strong and take heart, be light if you must fight the dark Blood in their mouths now, we've been driving them out, shout: yeah I can feel 'em all, I can feel e'm all around I can feel 'em all, I can feel e'm all around I can feel 'em all, I can feel e'm all around I can feel 'em all, I can feel e'm all around I can feel 'em all, I can feel e'm all around, ooooh I, I, can feel 'em all around me, a-woo I, I, can feel 'em all around me, a-woo I, I, can see the gleam in their teeth, a-woo I, I , can feel 'em all around me, a-woo Oh, I can feel 'em all, I can feel e'm all around Oh, I can feel 'em all, I can feel e'm all around Oh, I can feel 'em all, I can feel e'm all around I can feel 'em all around There are wolves in the garden, they are hanging on corners everywhere Blood in their mouths now, we've been driving them out, shout: yeah So be strong and take heart, be light if you must fight the dark Blood in their mouths now, we've been driving them out, shout: yeah A-woo A-woo A-woo A-woo A-woo A-woo Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh

Virginity 04:07
Once you learn, they say you can't do Growing up, we were torn in two Getting feelings in the night and they say they're wrong Sending the boys all off on their own Be a good girl, do what we tell you They expect you to know, they expect you to know They expect you to know, they expect you to know They say it's in your he-ead, but I don't think it is They expect you to know, they expect you to know And be as white as A woman of charm, faith and virtue She's the only one we can look up to Cause once you throw it away, you have nothing to give Your place is revoked for your right to live Who are we then? Are we human, too? Am I supposed to be sorry for the way I feel? Another day that nature leads me on And while the righteous feel sick just standing to me By the night, we'll be even and the blame is gone And I tell ya, I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry at all I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry at all (I'm so tired, I'm too thin, I feel trapped, I can't win) I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry at all (I'm so tired, I'm too thin, I feel trapped, I can't win) I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry at all

Babygirl 04:29
She could float like a feather, pretty paper plane But we see beauty in frailty, so are we to blame? She was velvet and dark lips, broken dreams and pearls Still, she never believed them, calling: "babygirl" Was she beautiful when she died? Did she measure to the standard they hold up to our lives? Oh I saw her in a bookstore when she was still alive Don't know why but I cried and I cried and I cried and I cried Oh, was she beautiful when she died? She longs to be another woman, nearly every day That body that she is supposed to love traps her like a cage They told her, "words can never hurt you," but it's all they did She told me, "I know that he'll love me when I'm finally thin." Was she beautiful when she died? Did she measure to the standard they hold up to our lives? Oh I saw her in a bookstore when she was still alive Don't know why but I cried and I cried and I cried and I cried Oh, was she beautiful when she died? They tell you that you're ugly Don't you dare forget To sell you back your pretty Are we pretty yet? Babygirl, babygirl Babygirl, babygirl Are we pretty yet? Are we pretty yet? Are we pretty yet? Are we pretty yet?

He's got a varsity jacket and a prom king crown There is no better lookin' of a catch in town You know, he heard from somebody that she puts out And if there's nobody here to stop the talking, now, well I, for the record Cry, sometimes I, was for certain An uneducated bride I, for the record Cry, sometimes I, have an anguish Like a thorn stuck in my side, all the time Oh, all the time He's got a blue vintage, top down and he's driving slow It don't look like they ever got a place to go Now anyone would be happy to get in, too So don't act so ungrateful when he looks at you, at you You just wanna do what the did before; it looked so cool What your father before you, and your mother before you They sang tradition, tradition... I DON'T WANNA WEAR YOUR CROWN I DON'T WANNA BE YOUR QUEEN I DON'T WANNA WEAR YOUR CROWN I DON'T WANNA BE THE QUEEN I DON'T WANNA WEAR YOUR CROWN I DON'T WANNA BE YOUR QUEEN I DON'T WANNA WEAR YOUR CROWN I DON'T WANNA BE THE QUEEN (Oh, all the time) Let's fight, go team, let's fight, go team (Oh, all the time) Let's fight, go team, let's fight, go team (Oh, all the time) Let's fight, go team, let's fight, go team
