Toy Rebel

When troubled home-

makers won’t leave you alone,

You find it most appropriate to call me

Plead, "Baby please,

You’re my release

Don’t you think it’s your fault I’m in this anyway?"

I don’t know why I 

Even bother getting out of bed 

When I know how you lie.

I'd fall for it a million times

You use me freely and I think I know why

Cause I'm a 

Toy rebel 

You can put me on your shelf,

Channel all your angst through me and

Make me hate myself

Toy rebel 

No one tells me what to do 

It’s just us against the world 

Or maybe it’s just you 

Switchblade fantasies 

Greasers on TV

Project their cliches all over me

Streetwise deceit,

Opioid retreats,

You want to see me succumb to my grief

Let me light up my molotov,

Maybe bash a skull? 

Break a window?

You want a self destructive debutante,

Don't fret, darling, there’s nothing I’m not!

I’m a toy rebel,

You can put me on your shelf

Channel all your angst through me

Make me hate myself

Toy rebel 

No one tells me what to do 

It’s just us against the world 

Or maybe it’s just you
