TWO SONGS TO YOU TWO BASTARDS
"Are You Happy Now?"
Now, don't just walk away
Pretending everything's ok
And you don't care about me
And I know there's just no use
When all your lies become your truths and I don't care... yeah, yeah, yeah

Could you look me in the eye
And tell me that you're happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now?

You took all there was to take,
And left me with an empty plate
And you don't care about it, yeah.
And I am givin' up this game
I'm leaving you with all the blame cause I don't care, yeah, yeah yeah,

Could you look me in the eye?
And tell me that you're happy now, oohh oohhh
Would you tell it to my face or have I been erased,
Are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhh
Are you happy now?
Are you happy now? yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you really have everything you want?
You can't ever give somethin' you ain't got
You can't run away from yourself

Could you look me in the eye?
and tell me that you're happy now, yeah, yeah
come on, tell it to my face or have i been replaced,
are you happy now? Ohhh, ohhhh
are you happy now?

Would you look me in the eye?
Could you look me in the eye?
I've had all that I can take
I'm not about to break
Cause I'm happy now, ohhh, ohhh
Are you happy now?

Hoochie Woman
I wasn't thinking
my head was in the book
his hands were on her everywhere
I saw his face
I dropped my coffee
he's cheating on me with a
hoochie woman
you can keep your hoochie
you can keep the house
and the bank accounts
'cause boys I bring home the bacon
I went to work and the office girls
were all burning their poetry
It wasn't good but in the neighborhood
now they're all just hoochie women
you can keep your hootchie
you can keep the house
and the bank accounts
'cause boys I bring home the bacon
I said boy I bring home the bacon now
He called me up
and said she has needs
I said you'll find them on Barney's fourth floor
he said I need a loan
that's not a problem
you'd better keep this from your hoochie woman
you can keep your hoochie
you can keep the house
and the bank accounts
'cause boy I bring home the bacon
I said girls I bring home the bacon now

Be glad the Baptist is very forgiving.
And no you're never getting my art in your hands.
We could have fixed the Wall of China.
We could have made things work.

But apologies were never meant when you spoke them
and I was nothing but another meal for your ego.
The friendship was gone the moment you stopped
treating me like a friend.

I'm not your fucking sounding board
or your guilt-eater, you selfish fruit.
You were right all along:
You need help

But it ain't coming from me anymore.

The lids are off.
My muse says write. Draw. Speak.
And I'm not censoring my speech anymore.

Its time I cared only about me.
