Medusa woke up one day and shaved her head Well maybe now you'll let me a little closer she said But she just sacrificed her identity instead Be careful how you trend Be careful how you tread Medusa went home again and watched TV A commercial for deodorant, tampons, so now we won't smell see Said the sister with the plastic smile, excitement, and glee Buy your shame for free Buy your shame for free And all the smiles that we spill Because it's part of the drill The shame that we bear For the floors that aren't there The unfulfilled will be dismissed For a savior, a kiss The memories we repress ... when we undress She went channel surfing And all that was seen Were decorative women arrive on the screen Conventional images of adolescent male dreams When men aren't around they fall apart at the seams Passive exposed Peaches and cream Survive like an object to blow off your steam Interchangeable fragments And outlines and shapes They say no they mean yes to little girl rapes And all the smiles that we spill Because it's part of the drill The shame that we bear For the floors that aren't there The unfulfilled will we dismiss For a savior, a kiss The memories we repress ... when we undress The rage trapped inside Smothered and dried The words that we use They divide and abuse The wound between women keeps the war-mongers grinning The war between women stops recovery beginning Medusa grew her hair back Around her face She'd been looking for alignment in the wrong place So she called up her friends Malcom x and collie And they go on a plane Cocked off too ... Falling-ac
