The Anti-Sex Backlash of the 80's Songtext

von The Roches

Oh God, Gilbert when you said that
I'm afraid I'll have to jump across the gorge
Like in this book I'm reading

When you read it back
You need a painkiller, painkiller but I'm sober
Stuck on some thought I can't express

I saw a part of you that was threatening to me
And I felt that I was messing in it
That fundamental problem with being friends

Some people around here
Can watch punky Brewster and that's about it
I probably would have been a little bored
Waiting for that one comment

One comment that ruins everything
But it is all subconsciously being said
All subconsciously being said
All subconsciously being said
All subconsciously being said

If you are a sexist pig
Then I have got to dislike
Dislike, dislike you

For the rest of my life
I will have to listen
To certain devastating things
For the rest of my life

For the rest of my life, my life
My life, my life, my life
