Otep Lyrics

"Numb & Dumb" lyrics


i'm tired of being tired
sick of being sick

erase & escape
the meathooks of reality

lock the door
load your guns
& pray for nothing

(i dont care, i dont care
i dont care, i dont care)

and daddy's shooting smack
and mama's smoking crack
and teacher is a sex addict
and preacher has a porn habit
and sister's sucha whore
and my life is a bore
take your vitamins
whiten your teeth
comb your hair
know when to speak

they say jesus was a masochist
but maybe they said, pacifist

oh sweet goddess of narcotics
on my knees i pray
just give me one more dose
& make it go away

make me completely
numb & dumb

(watch your tone, obey the law
know when to bend, believe in god)

i took his wife into my mouth
like a piece of wedding cake
i went back for extra helpings
& then i cleaned my plate

still covered in her yolk
the wet drug of my addiction
i'm nature's little criminal
a selfish crucifixion

oh sweet scarecrow in the sky
you have all the answers but
we will never die

oh sweet goddess of narcotics
on my knees i pray
just give me one more dose
& make it all go away

make me completely numb & dumb

i ran out the front door
the devil's at the back
whispering to the sea

& above
a black feathered sun
drunk on teenage meat

i dont care, i dont care
i dont care, i dont care

make me completely numb & dumb

medicate & sedate
pass the punishment i need another fix
