The Lemon Twigs – The Bully lyrics
[Verse 1]
Shane, I'm waiting
For you inside the bathroom stall
Anticipating
Your footsteps coming down the hall
[Pre-Chorus 1]
As I stay still
Something makes me ill
My eyes grow wide
[?]
[Verse 2]
Visions haunt me
Just as they did when I was young
My poor father
Was given Robert as a son
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Robert [?]
Shamed the family
Slow as slow could be
While his father had a PHD
[Verse 3]
Please have mercy
I'm doing everything I can
Robert Senior politely asked his son to stand
[Chorus]
Do you wanna know why
Your mother died?
When you were born
She couldn't bear to raise a boy like you
She just couldn't hack it
Her body attacked itself
By the time the birth was through
She was gone
Gone
[Verse 4]
Shane, I waited
To smash your head against the wall
My self-hatred
Makes me feel like I want it all
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Unclose my eyes
Listen to your cries
And try to feel my [?]
But my father's voice just won't subside
[Outro]
Ahhhhhhhh
Bah-aahhhhh
Ahhhhhhhh
Bah-ahhhhhh
Shane, I'm waiting
For you inside the bathroom stall
Anticipating
Your footsteps coming down the hall
[Pre-Chorus 1]
As I stay still
Something makes me ill
My eyes grow wide
[?]
[Verse 2]
Visions haunt me
Just as they did when I was young
My poor father
Was given Robert as a son
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Robert [?]
Shamed the family
Slow as slow could be
While his father had a PHD
[Verse 3]
Please have mercy
I'm doing everything I can
Robert Senior politely asked his son to stand
[Chorus]
Do you wanna know why
Your mother died?
When you were born
She couldn't bear to raise a boy like you
She just couldn't hack it
Her body attacked itself
By the time the birth was through
She was gone
Gone
[Verse 4]
Shane, I waited
To smash your head against the wall
My self-hatred
Makes me feel like I want it all
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Unclose my eyes
Listen to your cries
And try to feel my [?]
But my father's voice just won't subside
[Outro]
Ahhhhhhhh
Bah-aahhhhh
Ahhhhhhhh
Bah-ahhhhhh
