A Woman's Work - SheDaisy
Ruby's got a government that rules
inside her head
A third eye, a crystal ball, her
mama always siadIt would guide her
If she kept it inside her
The freak acroos the street tried to
contaminate her skin
She was thinking "Who would miss him?"
The world's about to end
And he'd fit perfectly into her catastrophe
She's a woman at heart and a man
on a mission
A Saint to purify the human condition
She's a fortune teller, but she's never gonna tell
There's a worm in the bottom of a
dead wishing well
CHORUS
A woman's work is never done
A woman's work is never done
Never, when she's a loaded gun,
loaded gun
Never done, never when she's
a loaded gun, loaded gun
She found it funny that nine and ten
were easier to do
After she'd meticulously filtered out a few
Still the voices shout
Take the garbage out
She was raised to believe that you get
what you pray for
If God was really good then she
wouldn't have to wait for
Him to drop the gavel, so she'll do it
all herself
There's a worm in the bottom of a dead
wishing well
(Repeat Chorus)
BRIDGE
When the flashing lights cut
through the billowing dust
her voices cried "Looks like it's
not just us, justice"
Guess she got a little careless
with cadaver eleven
Before she'll go to jail she'd
rather go to Heaven
And the final leap of faith
of a zealot Jezebel
Led 'em diggin' in the bottom
of a dead wishing well
(Repeat Chorus Twice)
She's a loaded gun
A woman's work, yeah, yeah
Oh, a woman's work
This, this woman's
This woman's work
(FADE)
