lyrics

Chorus
I'm not going home with you tonight
I'd rather be alone cause it feels right
Hey mister, did ya hear me, I said no! Get outta my sight!
Cause I'm not going home with anyone tonight!

Verse 1
I hear the whispers and I feel the stares
I know you notice me, but you don't care
And I smile on, the only thing I know how to do in these situations
I don't know how to react
But you're in my face and that's a fact
And I never asked for your attention...

Pre-Chorus
I don't know where you got the clue
That made you believe I was into you
Cause that notion just isn't true
And you;re acting straight up strictly rude
I don't think I could be clearer
But if you dare come one step nearer...
I'll make you regret it!

(Chorus)

Verse 2
He should've learned to watch his mouth
And how to keep his filthy hands to himself
As I resist and he persists,
I know I must give in... I can't win, I'm not stronger than him
Maybe I shoulda dressed more conservatively
So that he wouldn't be mentally undressing me
But why should that be a lady's responsibility?
You tell me.

(Pre chorus)
(Chorus)

Bridge
Hello, officer, I'd like to report a crime
I'm sorry? No, there were no witnesses at the time...
What do I gotta do to get through to you?
I swear on my mother I'm telling the truth!
But all I got are my words and my tears for proof...
Cause some scars don't show on the outside
And some scars will never heal
Some scars we spend our whole lives trying to hide
But that don't make them any less real...
Teach me teach me teach me tell me how I'm supposed to feel
Cause I don't know, I don't know how I'm supposed to heal...
And that's why...

(Chorus)

This early-career set really captures the essence of "Merms" we know and love years later. The raw talent, the musical range, the funniness and zaniness... It's all here and it always has been. You just have to look. Must-have set for your collection. devilspawn41283

Finally, Merms's 1st full-length LP has found its way to Bandcamp. I really like this album because of its variety, catchy hooks, and strongly emotional subject matter. Still play thru it semi-regularly and can't wait for their next LP. Nettacki
