lyrics

SHELTER

I parked in front of the woman's rescue shelter on a deep yellow midnight
there's lotsa guys out there that prefer to belt her rather than just treat her right
(case you didn't know)

you suddenly appeared and asked me for a date. I said "I'll have to wait and see -
I must inform you I have a mate and she's the only one for me!"
(her) "Just take a closer look at my pretty face - I'm sure you'll change your mind!

I gotta get me some a that unholy freebase, so its 5 bucks for ultimate head!"

(him) well we just talked for a while and I scored you some food. I wan't tryin' to be crude,
like the fat dude you alluded to who screwed you and talked rude and black and blued you
and kicked you out in the street nude and wooed you back with 'ludes
and promises of better moods.

you left sayin' you was gettin' away from him - you were done with repeated sorrow
told me your name - I think it was Kim, you said you'd be back tomorrow.

a month later I heard a knock on my door. I opened it and found her all covered with sores,
beat up like someone was settlin' a score, till they couldn't hit her no more -
till it became a bore, her lips and eyes covered with gore, she was out of it -
stunned to the core, mumblin' and whisperin' about bein' poor, I could see that her mind was tore,
BRIGHT BLOOD covered every thing she wore, finally I knew it was that whore that I'd met who had swore
she weren't gonna take any more a bein' thrown to the floor

I took her to the rescue shelter on a deep yellow midnight

now there's lotsa guys out there that prefer to belt her rather than just treat her right
