Tapeworm

Suck the pain right out of it

The wound will never heal

Suck the pain right out of it

You know they say you steal

 

They tipped you into the pool of wine

And laughed at you, the lush

They tipped you into the pool of wine

And complain that you’re a drunk

 

What kind of a mother is a tapeworm

What kind of a widow is a tapeworm

What kind of wife is a tapeworm

What kind of a woman is a tapeworm

 

Stutter in your misery

And they will say you lie

Stutter in your misery

But don’t let them see you cry

 

What kind of a mother is a tapeworm

What kind of a widow is a tapeworm

What kind of wife is a tapeworm

What kind of a woman is a tapeworm

 

You know they say you steal

You know they say you steal

But they took everything away

But they took everything away

But they took everything away

But they took everything away

 

What kind of a mother is a tapeworm

What kind of a widow is a tapeworm

What kind of wife is a tapeworm

What kind of a woman is a tapeworm

I never said a single word

I never said a single word

I never said a single word

I never said a single word
