(专辑: Why Am I So Happy? - 2015)
Smashed in the
emergency room Screaming like a
woman giving birth from her womb Feeling like he'd fallen to the
earth from the
moon What a
turbulent gloom, he got shot in the
chest Two bullets ripped the
flesh, the
blood soaked the
car, hard Old lady snubnose, opposite a
aardvark He was holding a
cold Miller like Bode Then two shots to the
heart, double Bon Jovi Now he's thinking like a
record while the
nurse applying pressure Freaking on a
stretcher, definitely gonna die He had just pulled a
knife on his wife in the
night Old lady pops up, pow, pow, surprise They used to beat their son right in front of their mama His name wasn't Chris, left her looking Rihanna Three days a
week, maybe four if the
Pats lost Isaac wishing he could move to his dad's spot But tonight was different Stepdad collapsed backwards, smashed the
dishes Blood puddles, linoleum in the
kitchen While the
old lady disappeared, efficient Like an assassin, in and out, the
hit impeccable All she left her calling card, it was a
stethoscope But nobody caught the
face on her His family screaming like they're at a
Drake concert So now it's looking like ER George Clooney tryna do CPR As his blood run like DMC He's just reminiscing, had a
GMC Spent the
weekends free With Sarah singing CMT Before she was his wife, before she feared for her life Nancy winked behind the
EMT Then he flatline died, that's the
E-N-D Or is it? Three weeks previous Sarah's crying cause her fetus is dying before he ever had a
chance Took his last breath, little heart in his chest met death before they ever held hands He'd never grow Tadpole to the
Leviathan Live to learn to try and fail the
love to feel to try again The
nurse is Nancy on the
night he died The
elephant in the
room let out a
mighty sigh But Nancy knew the
deal though As she put the
stethoscope to the
earlobes Sarah said "It was an accident" Nancy rolled her eyes, "Lean back, relax again" Sarah's heart pound, like her second husband right now Nancy frowns, saw that Sarah's head swelled around her hair "What happened to your head?" Sarah said, "I fell down the
stairs" But Nancy checked the
blood pressure and knew That Sarah was a
victim of domestic abuse Nancy wishes she could teach her man a
lesson or two So Nancy saw through the
lies that she explained It was transparent as a
dad who had a
sex change This was kinda like a
cry for help Her baby just died, she could die herself Plus her other son was living in this hell He was age twelve, "What's his name?" "His name's Isaac," tears dripping from his eyelids Sitting in the
corner playing Angry Birds Forgetting angry words he heard in private He didn't sniffle, he just let the
tears trickle in silence The
smile that he wore to school was one of his disguises He would soon exit from the
cycle of violence But that'll have to wait for the
encore Tonight, tears shed like where you keep the
lawnmower Three weeks later Nurse Nancy in the
'09 Sentra scrubs leather gloves and her dentures Got a
sticker on the
back window, NPR turned up like the
bat signal Thirty years now, working as a
nurse So she's seen it all from the
birth to the
hearse So she lurked with the
pistol in the
purse Always bring the
heat into a
cold world, what a
reverse Too many women battered and beaten and bruised Bleeping and bleeding, got the
blues cause their husband's attitude is a
heathen So she took it in her own hands Pop pop, bring the
grown out of "grown man" She kept the
heater, that's a
nine-millimeter She had caught more bodies than a
male cheerleader Every victim was a
child abuser or wife beater She would heat 'em up and give 'em all a
fever (Say ahhh) Tonight her victim had a
Miller on his breath Played a
villain, didn't know the
killer on his deck He liked to beat his wife in private Leave bruises the
color of violet in front of her son, Isaac Nancy'd seen her at the
hospital abused She was too afraid to run away, impossible to move So Nancy slid up in the
room like Stethoscope glinting in the
moonlight But he hadn't seen it sparkle yet, the
middle of the
physical argument He had the
veins popping out the
face, Marlboro red Her uniform medical, mask masquerade Somersault behind the
table like a
woman half her age Then Nancy popped up Told him "Stop," what? Pop pop, gun sound, then he dropped, what now? Sarah screamed out into the
June night And put her hand to her mouth like gesundheit
