The Black And White
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Mr. McCarthy killed the light
he didn't wake his lovely wife
He left the key inside the door
woke on the wrong side of the bed
She can't remember what he said
but she sure knew what he had done
Little choices in a, a little town maybe a
little man is right to be afraid
Biblic moralization, identity frustration,
confused man cannot know his heart
So he may be fucking her,
but he's thinking about him
Catherine McKinnon does exist,
she likes to call herself a feminist
A crusader who fights the pate.
But what she really hates is sex
Erotic images oppress and debase women as a whole
Simple solutions created by black & white thinking,
Too bad the world not work that way.
Catherine should get busy porkin, that dolt Andrea dworkin
I think they need a good hard fuck
Cause she may be off her back
now she needs to get off ours
The little man sits all alone,
his sexuality's been cut in stone
He don't love her, she don't really care
Two victims of the black and white
