"Sleater-Kinney: Sleater-Kinney" SLEATER-KINNEY: "SLEATER-KINNEY"






1) DON'T THINK YOU WANNA
way up in the sky
that is where am i
i breathe the thin air
i like it way up there

in a bunch of trees
i'm down on my knees
i know what you are
i know what you are

and i don't think you wanna
no i don't think you wanna
mess around up there

angels in the skies
watch you with their eyes
they know what you are
they know what you are
everything i say
comes back to me one day
everything you do
comes back to stare at you

and i don't think you wanna
no i don't think you wanna
mess around up there

way up in the sky
that is where am i
i breathe the thin air
i like it way up there



2) THE DAY I WENT AWAY
all the things i tried to tell you
on the day i went away
do i always have to leave you
for you to want me here to stay
couldn't you just tell me you'd miss me
all those things we never say
and i saw you sit there smiling
as my plane just flew away

so far so good
so far I was

all the things i try and write you
from so very far away
never had the time to tell you
reasons why i run away
if i was with you tomorrow
would you still feel far away
when i look and i can't find you
feels like you have gone away

so far so good
so far I was
so far so good
so far I was

please remember
please remember me
so far so good
so far I was

all the things i tried to tell you
on the day i went away
do i always have to leave you
for you to want me here to stay
can't you just tell me you'll miss me
all those things we never say
i remember what it's like there
towns that drive me far away


3) A REAL MAN
don't you wanna feel it inside
they say that it feels so nice
all girls should have a real man
should i buy it? i don't wanna

i don't wanna join yr club
i don't want your kind of love

if you have it in your thighs
you'll see that it feels so nice
"you wait, you'll cum every time"
i'm not that dumb i don't wanna


4) HER AGAIN
i don't know what you mean
i don't remember it
it doesn't mean a thing
i'm just a normal girl

i'm down in that hole where you left
me there both body and soul
i am filled with all those sick things
and i am getting out of here
i'm her again

i didn't say that thing
i don't remember it
i wasn't there that day
i didn't see a thing
i don't know what you mean


5) HOW TO PLAY DEAD
you wanna try go ahead and try
you want it now and that's the way it goes
you wanna hurt me go ahead and try
you're feeling sick, you poor thing
clean up your little mess
then i'll suck your dick
didn't i tell you it wasn't fun

you wanna show me how to play dead
how to be still how to please you

if i don't give you just what you need
it hurts you i'm such a tease
you're just a boy who likes to whine
i'm gonna choke can't feel a thing
you say go deeper you like it when i scream
and then you tell me i'm so good

you wanna show me how to play dead
how to be still how to please you

what's good for you is not for me
it's over for you it's not over for me
i won't suck your big ego and swallow all my pride
i'm spitting out your memory and stains you left inside of me
i'm sick of being full of what you fed me what I choked down
rip it outta me come on rip it outta me

i'll show you how it feels to be dead
how it feels to be held still
how i wish you were dead


6) BE YR MAMA
hold on to it
hold on to it
make you better
i made you better
you're inside me
i'm your mommy

i know what is going on here
i always make you so stronger
can't you see that i need to
can't you see that i need to yeah

hold on to it
you hold onto me
fix it for you
i fixed it for you
but i don't wanna
be yr mama

i know what is going on here
i always make you so stronger
can't you see that i need to
can't you see that i need to yeah

just a little more is what i wait for

hold on to it
you hold onto me
but i'm not gonna
be your mother


7) SOLD OUT
(for m.m.)

do do you want it
on a magazine cover
take it it's my body
take it i want money

diamonds are a girl's best friend ?

wanna be a star
watch me go nowhere
suckin on his dick

i want money

diamonds are a girl's best friend?

i see the way you look at girls
you think that i don't know it
i know what you want from me
i know what you want from me

sold out
do do you want it
on a magazine cover
take it it's my body

8) SLOW SONG
(record)
heard what you said i
heard what you said
on that day
wasn't so nice it
wasn't so nice
as i thought it would be
don't you know that i would go
if i had a way
running for my life i'm
running from the life
that is here before me

'cause it doesn't work that way
no it didn't work today

feeling so down i'm
feeling so down
like i could go
run into a tree or
running the street
then unwind all
don't you know i saw you go on that day
running for my life i'm
running from this life that is here before me

'cause it doesn't work that way
no it didn't work today

no


9) LORA'S SONG
and the more i'd lie perfectly still
more or less who can tell?
and then let me (hand) the back of your face
make a wish I hear a ??????

fuck you you must be irreal or happen to (loss) time
fuck you you 're too surreal switching through the place you find

still still perfect hound round
word tell ??????
won't you be late late
lost in your bed
who make a wish
rip it to shreds


10) THE LAST SONG
this song your song is the last song i'll ever do
for you about me cuz your games are through
i won't think i won't breathe i won't even close my eyes to dream
i'd starve you right out of me if i knew what else to eat
you said this would be the last time you'd ever hurt me
you said this would be the last time i'd ever cry
last time i didn't know how was i supposed to know
this time i found it i know how to scream

I DONT OWE YOU ANYTHING
I'M NOT A PART OF YOU
YOU CANT TAKE AWAY EVERYTHING
I'M NOT A PART OF YOU

this song your song is the only song i'll ever do
about you for me so i can stay alive
i can't think i can't breathe i can't even close my eyes today
i need you out of me before i turn into you
i can't stand to look at you until you remember everything
i can't be what you are what you think what you do
i know what it means when i look at you i look at you
and this time i'm looking and telling on you

I DONT OWE YOU ANYTHING
I'M NOT A PART OF YOU
BLOOD TIES DON'T MEAN ANYTHING
I AM COMING AFTER YOU

can you feel me coming after you
can you feel i'm right behind you
can you hear me telling on you
can you feel me tearing outta you

this song your song is the last song i'll ever do
for you about me cuz your games are through
this time i don't feel bad for anything i've ever said
and this time i want them to know what you did
