Sistersong lyrics

Everybody’s looking over your shoulder
Seems they can't wait to hear what’s next
Everybody’s saying she’s looking older
Could it be there is a cruel sun
Next to all this endless adulation?
All this reckless fatuation
And I will stay with you tonight
In case this corset gets too tight
And I will keep you company
Cuz that’s what a sister should be

So they said it was the year of the woman
I believe it was the year of sex
maybe this should be the year of the human
that would be a big complex
For all these endless aberrations
From meaningful expectations
I will stay with you tonight
In case this corset gets too tight
And I will keep you company
Cuz that’s what a sister should be

Everybody’s looking under your mattress
seems they can’t wait to find that pea
maybe you were never quite the princess
Everybody was afraid you’d be
And all these endless presentations
Must affect your concentration
So I will stay with you tonight
In case this corset gets too tight
And I will keep you company
Cuz that’s what a sister should be.
