I'm like ten and it's time for the talk again
About how being Republican
It just makes sense
Say it's up to me to carry on your family name
No hugs just handshakes 'cause hugs would be gay
And you drink Natty Light till you pass out on the couch most nights
With Bill O Reilly yelling sweet nothings from your TV night light
You got in a fist fight on the train with a stranger
Made my sister cry all the time when you helped her with her homework
You taught me the f word when I was two
You yelled cocksucker at the recycling bin and hey now I'm one too!
At church you hold the door read us scripture by the altar
Then you're cursing and screaming once we're in the car
Then at customer service on the phone to get your way
And at the dog and me when we tried to run away
The first talk we had about the birds and bees
You told me mom should've known you were leaving 'cause you'd stopped having sex
And it was her fault you left 'cause she couldn't keep the house clean
You didn't tell me till later that you'd also been cheating
When I'm scared you just tell me anyone can get murdered
And it's been years but you still can't stop calling me sir
When I told you what almost happened you didn't react
You're a thinker not a feeler because feelings are bad
I know you say you love me
But based on what you do and have done
I think you're more scared of being vulnerable
Than losing my love
