Girl

from Peace (EP) by The Leonas

lyrics

Girl, you better keep your mouth shut, hold your tongue
Don’t say something we’ll make you regret

Girl, you better keep your door shut, keep your door shut
The devil’s out prowling, I bet

Girl, you better keep your mind shut
This book hasn’t failed us yet

Girl, you know about keeping those legs shut, right?
No, don’t make me get into it

Girl, you better keep your mouth shut, hold your tongue
Just listen to what we have to say

Girl, you better keep your door shut, shut the lights out
Get on your knees and pray

Girl, you better keep that mind shut
Stay in here with us where it’s safe

Girl, you better keep those legs shut
’Til we tell you when it is okay

And it’s never okay
‘Til we say it’s okay

You ought to be ashamed

Girl, you better keep your mouth shut, keep your door shut
Keep your eyes shut

Girl, you better keep your mind shut, keep your heart shut
Keep ‘em shut

And cover it up

Girl, you turn those questions off, you’ve said enough
Now listen to us

And don’t fuss

Girl, you know you’re better off when you’re not yourself
And that’s what we want

And we get what we want
Better give us what we want
