Old Fashioned Family Values

Lyrics from Live Performance

[Verse 1]

He said he used pictures of me as motivation

Said women belong in the kitchen, that's their station

No carnal license just an accent on vacation

That'll get you really far

[Verse 2]

He spoke in slurs and figured he would be forgiven

Yes, he would rather ask for mercy than for permission

Beneath those [?] compromise positions

Guess it got him pretty far

[Chorus]

I always knew he looked like bad news

Never knew what laid beyond that face

Good old fashioned family values

When men were men and women knew their place

[Verse 2]

It's like he's still somewhere inside me eating me hollow

It's like I taste him even now each time I swallow

Like where he knew he jaunted I would follow

Pushed me a bit too far

[Chorus]

I said thank God I finally have you

Just wish there was some more of you to take

Good old fashioned family values

Where men are men and women know their place

[Verse 3]

He seemed surprised when I agreed that I was pretty

He was afraid of what I knew I had in me

Maybe that's why he got me naked so quickly

To dominate and make me small

I know that angry man was no man at all
