lyrics

She was born in the city
beautiful baby
bright child of "god"
apple of her daddy's eye
til he stepped out for ice cream & cigarettes
and he never came back

just a kid and
already guilty of a crime
for being born unexpectedly
for being another mouth to feed
for being a girl
ya see mommy and daddy
mommy and daddy had other plans

Brutalized
marginalized
Her history was a silent one
but She carried Her burden well
So sick of half baked promises
and 5 am declarations
She wondered about life somewhere else

time
time is the only true currency
so whats your time worth to you?
You see
in Fat Kat City
All you do is Time

— Paste

“A fantastic power that is as carnival-like and playful as it is possessed and cacophonic.”

— Atwood Magazine
