Everyday I'll leave my cage
Shave my wings
And brush my braids
Tie my leash
Straight jacket please
Someone break me free (x8)
Feeling all nice and tight
I think I'll get a bite
Molly and Lucy
They ate with me
Chains are tied and tight (x8)
God, John, and Jesus too
The twelve apostles
They're all just jews
But then why does it matter now
Religion feels so wrong (x8)
Waking up with thoughts divine
I leave my cage a weathered mine
Any good just left with me
I'll leave the shell for all to see
Someone break me free (x19)
Nowhere will I roam
So I think this is a nice little parody of Sliver by Nirvana. I found I listen to them a lot when I'm in a depressed moany mood, Kurt Cobain's tone of voice is so easy for me to sympathize with, and even though I probably know shit about what he actually meant to say with his words I feel like I understand them completely too, which just sounds absurd. I love Nirvana just because they make such bouncy and upbeat music, Krist Novoselic is like a bass god to me, and then it's strangely complimented by Kurt's depressed moans. It's like Kurt expressed life as a sigh, something you just brush off because it's irrelevant.
