What A Terrible Life For A Woman

She's sweet, lonely
Just his type
He pulls her in with a drink and a smile
Naive, baby
Don't think twice
If it comes with a price
Run for your life

What a pretty distraction
They told her to cover up her shoulders
Cause the boys couldn't focus
Maybe they should teach him
To control his own actions
But that's not what happens

He says "What a pretty distraction
She's just what I need"
And I know she'll be mine by the end of the night
If I make her as insecure as me

They're always tryin' to
 take what's not theirs
Drives me insane It's not fair

What a terrible life for a woman
Who just wants to be left alone
What a horrible world for all of the girls
Getting cat called as they're walking home

With keys in her hand
You don't understand
What she's had to do to get here

What a beautiful life for a woman
Who knows what she's worth
And knows why she's here
