Make A Wish

Make A Wish Lyrics

Once there was a girl born into poverty
Brought into this wicked world the land of slavery
Her parents said all that's behind
All you do is set your mind
And you will find a life that's ripe with possibility
They gave her books and records too
Look at all that you can do
Simone Biles and Booker T
Richard Wright and RBG
Sprinkle that black girl magic
Your gown will sweep the floor
The future is female
And it's gonna last ever more
Reap the fruits of sweet resistance
Nonetheless she persisted
Si se puede ain't no line
And baby girl it's your time
Anything whites can do you can do too
Any job that you see that's what you can be

She say I know what I wanna be
What do you wanna be
I know what I wanna be
What do you wanna be
I know what I wanna be
What do you wanna be
I want to be Jeffrey Dahmer
You want to be Jeffrey Dahmer
I wanna be Jeffrey Dahmer

Sweet little innocent black girl
Drillin' them holes in the motherf**kin' heads
Mean little white boy
Drillin' more holes in more heads
Who ya gonna vote for
Can't vote for the hombre doesn't make sense
Female Jeffrey Dahmer
Gon' be first woman president

So her daddy say why you wanna drill all those holes in the head
And her mama say something about it just doesn't seem right
Daughter say look black people been starved in the belly of the ship as you know
Drowned beat suffocated
Stuffed down had our whole lives violated
We been hung whipped scarred in all places
Burnt to a crisp in a sea of grinnin' faces
Tongues ripped out as they shove us in the mud
Babies taken from us and our genitals cut
Tie us break us chain enslave us
Drag us from the back of a truck in the black dust
Jasper Texas known as gravel necklace
For an evil nexus it's a blank canvas proud
Could be anywhere your hometown
Full of pain and degradation found
Libacious clowns 'stead of 40 acres
We ain't gonna get no reparations

And women huh that's a joke
How many girls get slapped and choked
By the end of this song
Think I'm wrong?
Numbers higher than Cheech and Chong
Woman beat every nine seconds
Fists rain down every direction
Everything's a weapon
Well intentioned
Messed molestin'
Send her a lesson

Threatening to finish one raped every minute
Happens on the streets or behind the spinet
We're in it - think clitorectomies
And the sex trade is a slave trade over 10 million a year
Name me an object hasn't been stuffed up some woman's orifice somewhere sometime
What's more folks I like girls and that's another danger to fear

So that's why I want to be the first black woman
And the first gay female to lure indigent youth to my basement
Bore holes in their skulls, and fill the holes with acid
In this I will be a pioneer and I can help pave the way for others
Her mama says well when you put it that way
And her daddy says we just want you to be happy honey
She says thanks ma thanks pa as she fetches her hat and coat
What you doing now where you plan to go
I'm gonna shuffle round home depot

Sweet little innocent gay girl
Drillin' them holes in the motherf**kin' heads
Mean little straight boy
Drillin' more holes in more heads
Who ya gonna vote for
Can't vote for the hombre doesn't make sense
Female Jeffrey Dahmer
Gon' be first woman president

So she pulls out of the driveway
Pulls into the bar
Finds a lanky staring blankly at a thick unlit cigar
Is he man or baby maybe 17 at most
She says you need a light for that
He looks at her like he seen a ghost
What's that you're feeling
You remind me of my mom
Are you a runaway
Is it that obvious
I had to come here escape my pa
Bashed my head into the sheetrock
Late last night I'd had enough
Sounds like you been through some toxic masculinity
What you need is some toxic femininity

Have some drinks
Grab some snacks
She shows him her photographs
Would you like a place to pass out for the night is cold
They head back to the fortress I mean her happy home
Leads him to the basement shows him mattress made of memory foam
Hands him a xanax
We all need some love
[?]

Sweet little innocent gay girl
Drillin' them holes in the motherf**kin' heads
Mean little straight boy
Drillin' more holes in more heads
Who ya gonna vote for
Can't vote for the hombre doesn't make sense
Female Jeffrey Dahmer
Gon' be first woman president
