Everybody's got a way around it,
Same suckers trying to deny it.
In your insolence you can't define it,
In your apathy you can't defy it.
Don't stop you can't look back (it's coming for you) x4
Never stop and let it just consume you,
Or try to pull the puppet strings that bind you.
In the end you'll find it only haunts you,
Cause it's the only thing that motivates you.
Wilted rose, blighted thorn, all my thoughts are forlorn.
Caved to sleep, but only rest. I still can't accept it.
Some people use heaven to fight it,
Others meditate to stop it.
In your ignorance you cannot see it,
In you arrogance you'll only bring it.
Dead bouquet, picked by may, in her grave she will stay.
I won't give into decay, I refuse to go this way.
What am I doing here, this bright light surrounds me.
I'm not going anywhere. I swear I'm just fine.
Everybody finds a way around it,
Everybody finds a way to hide it,
Everybody finds a way to define it,
But nobody finds a way to defy it.
Guilted prose, righted wrongs, my whole life's just prolonged.
Sunlit nights, moonlit days, black Julys, rain soaked Mays.

This girl she said to me
I wish my jeans fucking fit
And these tiny fucking pockets
Well they don't hold shit
And I guess she was pretty god damned right
They took her away!
Took away her rebellion
Taught her to obey
The perfect submissive
Capitalist Swine
Oh all you targeted, damaged little girls
Who don't understand the world!
Victoria's Secret Police, They're Coming For you!
Whoa-oa
Underwear models with guns
Propaganda's a sexy girl
She's meant to sell you
All the lace in the world
And most girls just fall in fucking line
Marching with the gestapo of their time
Lacey panties are jackboots
See-through bras swastikas
Women's pants are an illness
Purses a synthetic drug.
YA-Da-da-da- Yat-Da-da-da-da
Those aren't pockets they're just lies!
Victoria's Secret Police, they're coming for you!
WHoa-oa
(Solo)
Now I'm not saying
You can't wear cute, lacey things
Or really like
Stupid diamond rings
All I'm Saying is Have an Individual Mind
Don't give in to their kind!
Racey panties for dress-up
That'll make you pay
Guilt-shame you into buying
That shit anyway!

The Quintessential Oddities Lafayette, Louisiana
The Quintessential Oddities are a punk trio from Lafayette born from an acoustic cover of Britney Spears and a desire to tell bad jokes on stage, this group has evolved into something we believe is truly unique in the punk scene.
