(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)

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)
You make me do too much labour
(Mumwe, maviri, matatu) sei uri hanghin 'pa! Zvakasimba kwazvo
Kune tambo iyo ini ndiri hangin 'kubva. Kubva kuchitsuwa ichi?
Ichi chaive chirongwa chekupukunyuka (ichi chaive chirongwa chekupukunyuka)
Nokungwarira panguva yacho. Saka rega ndiende! Uye svina mumafungu ari pazasi
[Pre-Pre-chorus]
Ndiani anofudza mhanya?
Ndiani anogadzirisa makabhi?
Kushungurudzwa kwepamoyo
Kubva mumusoro wetafura yako yepamusoro
Ndiani anotora mvura
Kubva pamakomo egomo remakomo?
Uye famba udzoke zvakare
Kunzwa mazwi ako uye kuruma kwavo kwakapinza?
Uye ini ndiri Gettin 'fuckin' ndaneta
[Chorus]
Ma capillaries mumaziso angu ari kuputika
Kana rudo rwedu rwakafa, izvo zvingave chinhu chakaipisisa here?
Kune mumwe munhu wandaifunga kuti ndiMuponesi wangu
Iwe une chokwadi chandinoita kuti ndiite yakawanda yebasa
Ganda rakadaniswa pamaoko angu rinopwanya '
Kana rudo rwedu rwapera, chingave chinhu chakaipa here?
Uye kunyarara kunosvibisa imba yedu yemubhedha
Unoita kuti ndiite basa rakawandisa
[Post-chorus]
(Iwe unoita kuti ndiite basa rakawandisa)
[Ndima 2]
Kukumbira rurimi rwangu
Hazvimbofi zvako
Kubatikana Kucheka kubva mukapu inoyerera
Uye kurova neforogo yako
Ndinoziva kuti uri murume akangwara (ndinoziva kuti uri murume akangwara)
Uye chombo
Kusakwanisa kwenhema
Iyo inotonga pasi peguise
[Pre-Pre-chorus]
Dai isu taive nemwanasikana
Ndaiona uye ndakatadza kumuchengetedza
Kushungurudzwa kwepamoyo
Kubva mumusoro wetafura yako yepamusoro
Aizoita zvawakamudzidzisa
Aifanira kusangana neyakafanana neutsinye
Saka ikozvino ndatanga kumhanya
Saka ndinogona kugadzirisa chikanganiso ichi
Zvirinani ndinofanira kuedza
[Chorus]
Ma capillaries mumaziso angu ari kuputika
Kana rudo rwedu rwakafa, izvo zvingave chinhu chakaipisisa here?
Kune mumwe munhu wandaifunga kuti ndiMuponesi wangu
