Cord Lyrics by Orion Rigel Dommisse

Chickens

0

Used to be they could come behind you
While you were speaking
Wrap the cord around your neck
To try to stop your breathing
But little wives are not gettin'
Strangled anymore
With tangled phone cords
Thanks to cordless phones
Sister dear, you're 20 years
Behind in phone technology
You must be feeling silly
And so old fashioned
Oh, I know you'd do
All the things running through your head
While it is turning blue
All over again
My sister was beaten again
All over again
My sister was beaten again
We killed him, her and I
We sliced his throat open
And left him to die
Oh, I must protect her
For the sake of her daughter
If he ever did kill her
I'd have to adopt her
But I have plans great and small
None of which involve adopting her child
So I must protect her
For the sake of her daughter
If he ever did kill her
I'd have to adopt her
Did he think her heart
Had fallen asleep?
Was he trying to shake it up
To get it beating?
Well, if so, that's different
By that, I mean not quite the same
We all have methods
We are loathe to explain
All over again
My sister was beaten again
All over again
My sister was beaten again
We killed him
Her and I
We sliced his throat open
And left him to die
Oh, I must protect her
For the sake of her daughter
If he ever did kill her
I'd have to adopt her
But I have plans
Great and small
None of which involve
Adopting her child
So I must protect her
For the sake of her daughter
If he ever did kill her
I'd have to adopt her
Little wives are not gettin'
Strangled anymore
With tangled phone cords
Thanks to cordless phones
No little wives are not gettin'
Strangled anymore
With tangled phone cords
Except for my sister
