Bikini Kill - Reject All American Lyrics
Statement Of Vindication
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Whose the fairest of them all?
I don't I don't really care y'know
I don't I don't really care
I don't I don't really care
Like it's not that important at all
You made the rules
You wrote the script out
Don't blame me when you f*ckin lose
Don't put the blame on me
You try to make me crazy
You try to make me scared
You try to make me crazy
I think yr a f*cking drag
You are yr own worst enemy

Capri Pants
If you see me
If you see me
Just go away
Just go away
If I run
If I run
Don't follow me
Just go away
Cuz I like you
But baby it's all wrong
Cuz I yeah I like you
But baby it's all wrong
If I run don't you think
You know what I want
It feels good
It feels good
It's all wrong
It's all wrong
It feels so good
It must be wrong
It feels so good
It must be wrong

Jet Ski
Aint got no more
No more candy for you
Im not yr rocket ship
Or yr motor boat
Yr movie set
Or yr cartoon show
Not yr f*cking VCR
Not yr avante gard postcard idea
I'm not yr oilwell
I'm not yr blood bank
I'm not yr bullet proof vest
Or yr Visa card
I aint got no candy for you
I said I'm not yr vacation spot
I'm not yr footnote, freakshow
Or yr latest cause
I'm not yr view to a kill
I'm not yr background tune
I'm not the nutty story
That yr neighbors been telling to you
I aint got no candy for you
I said I'm not yr oilwell
I'm not yr dimestore novel
Or yr prison cell
I aint got no candy for you

Distinct Complicity
Determined by many
Determined by many
Determined by many
Determined by many
Chorus 1 :
Determined by many separations,
No controlling and understated,
Determined today by those of us
Who refuse to conquer hesitation
I don't see anything else in this room, I don't think so
Uh oh, oh-oh
You're already 22
Don't waste yr life in school
You could go back anytime
And I wanna see you on tour
Chrous 2 :
Determined by many situations,
Seemingly random considerations
Determined by those of
You who decide to do more than
Just sit on the floor
I don't see anything else in this room
I don't see you, no not at all
I'm walking down the street
I'm skating to the show
I wanna see yr band play
But there's no one here I know
Chorus 3 :
Determined by many separations
So controlling & understated
Determined today by those of us
Who refuse to conquer hesitation
I don't see anything else in this room
To prove me wrong

False Start
On a point in time-present undefined
And it's getting cold outside
Situation statical-for reasons you don't know
Just short of indecision
And it's getting cold outside
And it's getting cold outside
For you own trepidation
Refer to new perspexion
See yourself as others see you
In reverse red can appear blue
Wanna go outside
Don't you wanna go outside
Been stuck inside your room
So stranded-like and full of doom
All year
Time out for good behavior
Adds up to what you want it to
What you wanna, what you
Wanna do.
What informs a motivation-
Casual or obligation-factitious circumstance
Suspending all your future plans
Wait for you outside.
If this false started motion
Believes its own propulsion
Tran-sending space and time,
Then I'll wait for you outside
Then I'll wait for you outside
Been so long since I've seen you
So much has changed, you sound the same
We're meeting at this place I wanna see you,
See your face again
We're all waiting, we're all waiting here.

Rip
I cant say everything about it
In just one single song
I cant put how i feel in a package
And sell it back to everyone
But wait
Theres another boy genius whose f*cking gone
I hope the food tasts better in heaven
I know theres lots of rad queer boys up there
I hope evertime they talk to you
They know they're lucky to be your friend
Cuz look
Theres another boy genius whose f*cking gone
And i wouldnt be so f*cking mad so f*cking
Pissed off if it wasnt so f*cking wrong
Its all so f*cking wrong
Its not fair - its not fair - its not fair
But no one said life was easy
Yeah but no one said - no one said
Nothings supposed to happen right?
No, no one told me anything
To prepare me for f*cking this
Theres another boy genius whose f*cking gone
Dont tell me it font matter
Dont tell me ive had three days to get over it
It wont go away
It just wont go away

No Backrub
Lung cancer
No time
Lots of stress
More fear
Self pity
Headache
Lots of guilt
No sleep
These are the things I give myself
No pleasure
No time
Don't need to feel fine
Dirty kitchen
Broken car
Trying to breathe in
Thru a scar
These are the things I give myself
Loads of execution
Loads of execution
Loads of execution
These are the things I give myself
BEEN PROGRAMMED TO
SELF DESTRUCT....

Bloody Ice Cream
The Sylvia Plath story is told to girls who write
They want us to think that to be a girl poet
Means you have to die
Who is it
That told me
All girls who write must suicide?
Must suidide, must suicide
I've another good one for you
We are turning
Cursive letters into knives

For Only
An image from a long long time ago
Is haunting me
It plays itself with
Picture perfect clarity
A certain walk, a certain talk
Forever twenty three
For only me to see
I watch it like a movie
The details so consume me
What's real will surface when it's gone
(and then it's gone)
By now you've heard the news
What is there left to do
I watch it like a movie
The details so consume me
What's real will surface when it's gone
(and then it's gone)
Yr face looks so familiar
Unwashed and quite peculiar
No i can't say that i recall
I guess it's gone

Re-run shows
Robotic nation
False history spit out
Another picture of a girl with a gun
To bore me
Cartoon girl
Hallmark card
I see a punk club
He sees a strip bar
Somethings can't
Be photographed
Somethings can't
Be photographed

Finale
Red light stop
Green light go
I'm hearing voices
On my stereo
They wanna tell me something
That I don't already know
They wanna tell me something
Right now:
We're the girls with the bad reputation
We're the girls gonna make you pay
We're the girls with the bad reputation
We are gonna have our say
Time to go
Time to go
Time to go
Green light go
