(One, two, three) Why are you hangin' on! So tight
To the rope that I'm hangin' from. Off this island?
This was an escape plan (This was an escape plan)
Carefully timed it. So let me go! And dive into the waves below

(One, two, three) Why are you hangin' on! So tight
To the rope that I'm hangin' from. Off this island?
This was an escape plan (This was an escape plan)
Carefully timed it. So let me go! And dive into the waves below
[Pre-Chorus]
Who tends the orchards?
Who fixes up the gables?
Emotional torture
From the head of your high table
Who fetches the water
From the rocky mountain spring?
And walk back down again
To feel your words and their sharp sting?
And I'm gettin' fuckin' tired
[Chorus]
The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
If our love died, would that be the worst thing?
For somebody I thought was my saviour
You sure make me do a whole lot of labour
The calloused skin on my hands is crackin'
If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?
And the silence haunts our bed chamber
You make me do too much labour
[Post-Chorus]
(You make me do too much labour)
[Verse 2]
Apologies from my tongue
Never yours
Busy lapping from a flowing cup
And stabbing with your fork
I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man)
And weaponise
The false incompetence
It's dominance under guise
[Pre-Chorus]
If we had a daughter
I'd watch and could not save her
The emotional torture
From the head of your high table
She'd do what you taught her
She'd meet the same cruel fate
So now I've gotta run
So I can undo this mistake
At least I've gotta try
[Chorus]
The capillaries in my eyes are bursting
If our love died, would that be the worst thing?
For somebody I thought was my saviour
You sure make me do a whole lot of labour
The calloused skin on my hands is crackin'
If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?
And the silence haunts our bed chamber
You make me do too much labour
[Bridge]
All day, every day: Therapist, mother, maid
Nymph, then a virgin nurse, and a servant
Just an appendage, live to attend him
So that he never lifts a finger
Twenty-four-seven baby machine
So he can live out his picket fence dreams
It's not an act of love if you make her
You make me do too much labour
All day, every day: Therapist, mother, maid
Nymph, then a virgin, nurse, and a servant
Just an appendage, live to attend him
So that he never lifts a finger
Twenty-four-seven baby machine
So he can live out his picket fence dreams
It's not an act of love if you make her
You make me do too much labour
[Chorus]
The capillaries in my eyes are bursting (All day, every day: Therapist, mother, maid)

You sure make me do a whole lot of labour (So that he never lifts a finger)
The callous skin on my hands is crackin' (Twenty-four-seven baby machine)
If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? (So he can live out his picket fence dreams)
And the silence haunts our bed chamber (It's not an act of love if you make her)

(Umwe, babiri, batatu) kuki uri umanin 'kuri! Birakomeye
Ku mugozi ndumin 'kuva. Kuri iki kirwa?
Iyi yari gahunda yo guhunga (iyi yari gahunda yo guhunga)
Byitonze. Reka rero ngende! No kwibira mumiraba hepfo
[Pre-chorus]
Ninde ukura imborozi?
Ninde ukosora ibible?
Iyicarubozo ryamarangamutima
Kuva kumeza yawe
Ninde uzana amazi
Kuva ku musozi w'isoko?
Hanyuma usubire inyuma
Kumva amagambo yawe kandi ukarishye?
Kandi ndi gettin 'fuckin' ananiwe
[CHORUS]
Capillaries mumaso yanjye iraturika
Niba urukundo rwacu rwapfuye, ibyo byaba ari ikintu kibi cyane?
Kubantu natekerezaga ko ari Umukiza wanjye
Uzi neza ko nkora imirimo myinshi
Uruhu rwaciwe kumaboko yanjye ni crackin '
Niba urukundo rwacu rurangiye, ibyo byaba ari ikintu kibi?
Kandi guceceka bihiga Urugereko rwacu
Urantera gukora imirimo myinshi
[Post-chorus]
(Urantumye gukora cyane)
[Umurongo wa 2]
Gusaba imbabazi Ururimi rwanjye
Ntukigere uryawe
Bihuze gukubita igikombe kitemba
No gutera icyuma hamwe na fork yawe
Nzi ko uri umugabo wubwenge (nzi ko uri umugabo wubwenge)
Na Intwaro
Ubushobozi buke
Ni ubutware munsi ya Guise
[Pre-chorus]
Niba dufite umukobwa
Narebye ntirishobora kumukiza
Icarubozo ry'amarangamutima
Kuva kumeza yawe
Yagukora ibyo wamwigishije
Yahuye na Fate imwe yubugome
Ubu rero ngomba gukora
Nshobora rero gukuraho iri kosa
Byibuze ngomba kugerageza
[CHORUS]
Capillaries mumaso yanjye iraturika
Niba urukundo rwacu rwapfuye, ibyo byaba ari ikintu kibi cyane?
Kubantu natekerezaga ko ari Umukiza wanjye
Uzi neza ko nkora imirimo myinshi
Uruhu rwaciwe kumaboko yanjye ni crackin '
Niba urukundo rwacu rurangiye, ibyo byaba ari ikintu kibi?
Kandi guceceka bihiga Urugereko rwacu
Urantera gukora imirimo myinshi

Umunsi wose, burimunsi: Umuvuzi, Umubyeyi, umuja
Nymph, hanyuma umuforomo wisugi, numukozi
Gusa umugereka, ubeho kugirango witabe
Kugirango atigera akura urutoki
Imashini yimyaka makumyabiri na kane
Arashobora rero kubaho inzozi za piketi
Ntabwo ari igikorwa cyurukundo uramutse muramukoze
Urantera gukora imirimo myinshi
Umunsi wose, burimunsi: Umuvuzi, Umubyeyi, umuja
Nymph, noneho isugi, umuforomo, n'umukozi

Arashobora rero kubaho inzozi za piketi
Ntabwo ari igikorwa cyurukundo uramutse muramukoze
Urantera gukora imirimo myinshi
