Shush versuri

Versuri Tori Amos – Shush lyrics

Southern girls know what it means
Southern girls know what it means
Southern girls know what it means
When the patriarchy menacingly says:
„You shush yourself down now”

„You put a finger to those beautiful lips
We both know what they’re good for, don’t we?
You put a finger on those beautiful lips
We both know what they’re good for, don’t we?”

„You shush yourself, shush yourself
Shush yourself, shush yourself down now
You shush yourself, shush yourself
Shush yourself, shush yourself down now”

He says “I no longer believe
That freedom and democracy
Are compatible, compatible
That’s clear to me”

„There is hierarchy
You should be pleased to serve
In any capacity, capacity
I’m not asking”

„You put a finger to those beautiful lips
We both know what they’re good for, don’t we?”

„You shush yourself, shush yourself
Shush yourself, shush yourself down now”

Am I just a resentful observer
Slinking from one penthouse to another
In this Urban Serengeti ?
Am I just meat?
Can I live through this?
Can I live through this?
Courtney, thank you

He calls me Cassandra
He calls me a Cassandra and says:
“Cause no-one will believe
Your prophecies”

He calls me his Cassandra
As he puffs his Cohiba Behike
„Just put a finger on those beautiful lips
We both know what they’re good for, don’t we?”

„You shush yourself, shush yourself
Shush yourself, shush yourself down now”

I knew a girl who wrote
‘Silent All These Years’
Where is she?
Where is she?
Where is she?
Where is she?
