about

I wrote this for a Rock Against Rape Show that I played at in San Francisco. I originally wrote it to be a duet with my friend, Storm Large, and we sang it as such for a few years, but on the CD, I just tracked it myself.
I just wanted to write a song where the "victim" turns the tables on the oppressor and gets the last word.

lyrics

Don’t think I don’t notice you
Staring at my body while I sing
Your psychotic thoughts are rooted
Way down deep inside your greed
I know what sexy is, I wear it splendidly
Don’t think that entitles you, entitles you to everything

What if I came after you in the middle of the night
You’d be the ugly coward in the unfair fight
If I came after you in the middle of the night
You’d be the ugly coward in the unfair fight,
In the unfair fight

Don’t think I don’t notice you outside my house at night
I smell the stench of your sick desire,
You still don’t have the right
I know what sexy is, I wear it splendidly
Don’t think that entitles you, entitles you to everything

What if I came after you in the middle of the night
You’d be the ugly coward in the unfair fight
If I came after you in the middle of the night
You’d be the ugly coward in the unfair fight,
In the unfair fight

What would you do? I’m coming after you
What would you do? I’m coming after you
I’m coming after you.......

Don’t think I don’t notice you staring at my body tonight
Your psychotic thoughts are lucid in this light
They’re lucid in this light- You still don’t have the right

What if I came after you in the middle of the night
You’d be the ugly coward in the unfair fight
If I came after you in the middle of the night
You’d be the ugly coward in the unfair fight,
In the unfair fight, in the unfair fight.....
What if I came after you (What would you do?)
What if I came after you (What would you do?)
What if I came after you?
