Lyrics

It's such a great release
To feel it slip away
It's getting old and thin and grey
And past it's rabid, snarling, adolescent scream
I mean it's all still there
But hell, the need is not so great
It doesn't totally dictate
The way I act and think and talk and write and dream
But I will never lose
The male viewpoint that I learned
How every woman can be turned
Into a plaything we deserve as if of right
But it will need some work
Before it disappears
It will need years and years and years and years and years and years and years
But it will always stay
In some dark recess of my brain
And, sure its loss would be my gain
And, who knows, someday, it may disappear from sight
It's such a great release
To feel it slip away
It's getting old and thin and grey
And past it's rabid, snarling, adolescent scream
But it will need some work
Before it disappears
It will need years and years and years and years and years and years and years
It's such a great release!
