Skinny little bitch Starin' at the mirror In your desperation to disappear And you would be oh so dumb to f*ck with me Cause baby you're much too young to end up with me Your bedroom walls fallin' down Everyone can see you now Your bedroom walls suffer truth Now you lie, you lie, you lie alone You lie alone, you never sleep How you never sleep Ow! Skinny little bitch Praying to the lord Praying for some salvation Cause she's oh so bored In my vile sex horror and cheap drugs hell And all the things you'll never live to tell And you will never see the light You're just obscure and out of spite You're just a nasty piece of work Come on, come on, come on baby Come on baby let it burn Oh baby does it hurt Born, of foul creation Born, of sour milk Cocaine filth You stepped your heels in broken glass So I could kick your scrawny ass And all the drugs and all the burns What a nasty What a nasty, nasty piece of work Oh baby does it hurt Oh baby just go slower Oh baby just go lower Skinny little bitch Skinny little bitch Skinny little bitch Skinny little bitch Skinny little bitch Skinny little bitch Skinny little bitch Skinny little bitch Skinny little bitch
