lyrics

You lie to kids about things that don’t matter
Bandages to make them feel better
Lollipops after vaccinations
Alcohol on cuts, scrapes, and abrasions

Permission slip, learn about the ocean
Take a trip, manta rays in motion
They’re so big, and you’re so teeny tiny
With bruised knees, and a little grimy

When did we agree to teach our kids to hate themselves as much as we do?

Break a kid, make them start to question
What it is their parents love about them
Take a quiz, less than satisfactory
What is this? I don’t think I like me

When did we agree to teach our kids to hate themselves as much as we do
Ashes ashes, dust (dust), cut my ear off if I tell you
I don’t wanna be a person if a person is a person like me x2

Pattycake, all over your body
Stay awake, now is not the time to dream
Final turn, pull into the driveway
Pack a bag, plan to run away

When did we agree to teach our kids to hate themselves as much as we do
Ashes ashes, dust (dust), cut my ear off if I tell you
I don’t wanna be a person if a person is a person like me x2
