providence st. - comedienne lyrics
on providence street
we cursed ourselves to sleep
twelve years on plastic sheets
and braces after babies t**th
it’s where we were raised
a section 8 estate
the wards of waitress wage
the airs of mothers maiden names
a little overweight
clothes safety*pinned in place
mistakes our mothers made
for years our tears turn ticker tape
thе shake in your voice
and shoulders likе a boy’s
you, you never had a choice
you never looked your age
a gentleman’s gaze
and seven generations of
“love” framed in quotations
is this the way grown men behave?
you went from bated breath
to plainly bored to death
you went from pink to red
and then we slept in separate beds
on providence street
where we turned seventeen
still halfway in between
the love we seek
and loves we leave
they led you away
your fingers laced together
oh, faithful young offender
i remember every frame
a little overweight
clothes safety*pinned in place
mistakes our mothers made
the years our tears turn ticker tape
