The Lafayettes

from S​/​T by Voight-Kampff

/

lyrics

I know I ruled you like a tyrant does
the way you told me that your father was
I was so young, I know it's no excuse
but all of my life I'd only known abuse

And sippin Scotch and dancin in that mansion down the street
too drunk to get my chance was gone to sweep you off your feet

The Lafayettes, I know, did not approve
those wealthy liberals held sway with you
I realize their fears were justified
my infidelities too numerous to hide

You quit your job in haste in favor of
giving me head in parking lots, so full of love
then you moved on towards security
the purpose of your change not lost on you or me
just wish I'd had a chance to say to you
that I had always adored you through and through
