lyrics

Some crazy fucker made the news/as an archetypal caricature easily categorized and then excused/but what of all the crazy fuckers I deal with every day/yeah him and them and you and you and you and you/you’re all the same/Violence is your birthright and you are armed to the teeth/an arsenal of weapons/none of which are benign as you’d have me believe/and I’m long past that naive/Don’t you touch me yeah I’ll fucking end you/Don’t come near me yeah I’ll fucking end you too/Don’t you look at me I’ll fucking end you too/I’m thinking thinking thinking thinking what would Valerie do/We are all capable please make no mistake/You can deny it, get defensive, or just acknowledge what’s at stake/You call me crazy, cunt, bitch for the things I say/but you know I’m all too well aware of the space that I take/and the risks that attend freedom’s demand are just part of misogynist infested waters in which I swim/Don’t you touch me yeah I’ll fucking end you/Don’t come near me yeah I’ll fucking end you too/Don’t you look at me I’ll fucking end you too/I’m thinking thinking thinking thinking what would Valerie do.
