Lyrics
You say you are turned on but since when were you unplugged
I tell you no one’s watching; you dismiss me with a shrug
But I go back and check my toothbrush for hairs every morningYou want something to parade at social functions
Something pretty and of worth in your future echelons
But I’ve never sat in a store front window and I don’t know if I could fake it nowYou say I am out of hand, which is true
One thing out of your hand
Is me, your heroineMy skin reflects the lot of implanted finery
And I puke up protein and shave my ass reflexively
Magazines and gossip columns strew the coffee table like bondsThe act of sensing defines the paradigm of the other
By fitting in as such, such distinctions suffer
Taking care not to raise my voice or blush, given issueYou say I am out of hand, which is true
One thing out of your hand
Is me, your heroineIf you said you were turned on but since when were you unplugged
I tell you no one’s watching, you dismiss me with a shrug
But I go back and check my toothbrush for hairs every morningYou say I am out of hand, which is true
The one thing out of your hand
Is me, your heroineYou say I am out of hand, which is true
The one thing out of your hand
Is me, your heroineOn my chest as if I’m crawling down the runway
I frost my lips and turn blue beneath the midway
I can pierce a room with my gaze and my arched back postureYou say I am out of hand, which is true
The one thing out of your hand
Is me, your heroine
