Independent Love Video (MV)

I came to under the pear tree
Met in kind by the birds and the bees
I'll tell you what they told me

Meet me under the pear tree
Wrap me up in your wings
Bathe me in the soft petals
Show me a beautiful spring

But my nanny begged to differ
Said the spring don't bring water all that well
If you find an old tree by the lake
You wouldn't suffer as I did

Hell

Men have Mercy
Please have mercy
Don't harm her as you did me

And I left that town
With my hair draped down
And my heart on my sleeve

I said would you please
Treat me like a lady?

Mercy on the
Mercy on me

Things picked up
Sooner than expected
You'd have thought I'd learned my lesson

The woods pre-chopped
But I swallow my thoughts
My hair tied up
To hide from the looks
Their men give

So
Jody Jody
You're old and decrepit
I've waited to tell you

We could've seen a real springtime
If you'd given me the freetime
Not living hell

Try threes not going so bad
There's the muck checkers and new things I've never had
Finally I'm allotted
A play in the game

I know from now on things are gonna change
We can walk side by side
Step by step
Without feeling the fear
Of a gun to my head

I took a step back
A swim
And now things have turned more grim
My life my love
Is carrying a loaded gun

She wants him instead

He wants me dead
I'll make sure that doesn't happen

Don't shoot that gun
If I shoot this gun

Mercy on the
Mercy on the
Mercy on the men
