Simmering Rage
[Verse 1]
Crazy in love
Yeah we shoulda waited
It's powerful stuff
Hell we barely hesitated
We done the right thing
She wore a ruby dress
And I got a job
On a hydraulic press
Between the knocked up bride
And that minimum wage
I lay awake night
With a simmering rage
[Verse 2]
The gov'ment sucks
And the traffic's worse
I got nunchucks
And fingernails full of dirt
A feud with a dude on the line
Yeah but I ain't scared
We just clock in
Bust ass and stare
As our dreams fade
From the gold to beige
And we sink into
Oh the simmering rage
[Chorus]
Oh the shattered glass slipper scattered 'cross the floor
Like my Cinderella and yours once more
The wretched refuse of a new Stone Age
Star spangled sum bitches
With a simmering rage
[Verse 3]
The horn blows at 4:30
We go our separate ways
Forever connected
Like Mantle and Mays
His woman picks him up at the gate
She looks good for her age
She looks at him and through me
With a simmering rage
[Chorus]
Oh the shattered glass slipper scattered 'cross the floor
Like my Cinderella and yours once more
The wretched refuse of a new Stone Age
Star spangled sum bitches
With a simmering rage
[Bridge]
Yeah we're just bricks in the wall flying flags on our lawn
Trying to find something or someone to blame it all on
And our dreams fade from gold to beige
And sink into
The simmering rage
[Chorus]
Oh the shattered glass slipper scattered 'cross the floor
Like my Cinderella and yours once more
The wretched refuse of the new Stone Age
Star spangled sum bitches
With a simmering rage
Yeah star spangled sums bitches
With a simmering rage
