There's a lot of piss in the alley some nights
It's a damn good thing that it rains
But these guys - this gross - they think it's a toilet
And that's what they think of your town -
Your town? That's how they think of your daughter.
And you're still confused
About some of these things
A lot more than you should
Men are raised to treat most women
Just enough to get what they want
A dry bed, a clean towel, a semblance of home
But in search of consent they still lie -
Consent? Consciousness is inconvenient.
And you're still confused
About some of these things
A lot more than you should
And one day older, these upright men
Sterling, stalwart, and strong
Vehemently swear to defend the honor
Of their daughters against men like them -
Like them? Don't treat their daughters like them.
Don't treat their daughters like them
And you're still confused
About some of these things
A lot more than you should
