Cyanide Sister

from Streetside Surprise by Party of One

lyrics

Cyanide sister yer outta control
Unresolved scars from 8 years ago
And years of self-destruction
Have taken their toll

Mom had a favorite
Who she wouldn't say
But she raised three kids
In twelve different ways
If ya had enough sense
You woulda run away

Twelve-year-old gestapo
In the grade-school hall
Five hundred kids
Tryin' to make ya feel small
There ain't nothin' you can do
'Cause they ain't breakin' any laws

You got one friend
But she ain't got a clue
She likes to criticize ya
For everything ya do
She only thinks she knows ya
'Cause she sticks to ya like glue

So ya can't go to school
And ya don't wanna stay at home
Yer friend's just a twit
Don't wanna talk to her on the phone
Girl it looks like yer on yer own

Took ya to the doctor
'Cause you were insane
Locked you up for weeks
And erased half yer brain
So you were only half the problem
But you took all the blame

Since they turned you inside-out
You've been just fine
But it's comin' back to haunt ya
Years down the line
But ya can't tell yer mom
'Cause she's ignorant and blind

She'd say, "it's not my fault
You're sad and depraved
Your brother and your sister
Are so well-behaved
When we sent you
Through corrections
Our family was saved"
