Simmering Rage - Roger Alan Wade

Crazy in love

Yeah we shoulda waited

It’s powerful stuff

Hell we barely hesitated

We done the right thing

She wore a ruby dress

And I got a job

On a hydraulic press

Between the knocked up bride

And that minimum wage

I lay awake night

With a simmering rage

The gov’ment sucks

And the traffic’s worse

I got nunchucks

And fingernails full of dirt

A feud with a dude on the line

Yeah but I ain’t scared

We just clock in

Bust ass and stare

As our dreams fade

From the gold to beige

And we sink into

Oh the simmering rage

Oh the shattered glass slipper scattered 'cross the floor

Like my Cinderella and yours once more

The wretched refuse of a new Stone Age

Star spangled sum bitches

With a simmering rage

The horn blows at 4:30

We go our separate ways

Forever connected

Like Mantle and Mays

His woman picks him up at the gate

She looks good for her age

She looks at him and through me

With a simmering rage

Oh the shattered glass slipper scattered 'cross the floor

Like my Cinderella and yours once more

The wretched refuse of a new Stone Age

Star spangled sum bitches

With a simmering rage

Yeah we’re just bricks in the wall flying flags on our lawn

Trying to find something or someone to blame it all on

And our dreams fade from gold to beige

And sink into

The simmering rage

Oh the shattered glass slipper scattered 'cross the floor

Like my Cinderella and yours once more

The wretched refuse of the new Stone Age

Star spangled sum bitches

With a simmering rage

Yeah star spangled sums bitches

With a simmering rage
