RETURN TO WONDERLAND...by Talile Ali

RETURN TO WONDERLAND
RETURN TO WONDERLAND
I SHOULD HAVE CHANGED MY PLANS
RETURN TO WONDERLAND

I MET A YOUNG GIRL
AS CUTE AS SHE COULD BE
BRIGHTER THAN A BUTTON
GOT THE BEST OF ME

MAMA WAS A HOE THOUGH
MESSED AROUND A LOT
NEVER KNEW HER REAL DAD
SEX IS ALL SHE GOT

HER MOM LIKED HER PLAYIN'
BABY LEARNED REALLY WELL
BETTER TO DO SOMEONE
THAN LIVE IN THIS HELL

SHE SWORE THAT SHE'D NEVER
SUBMIT HER KIDS TO THIS
SO A BOY FROM THE SUBURBS
GOT TO GRANT THAT WISH

DOESN'T MATTER IF HE LOVED HER
JUST AN ORNAMENT
BOTH WANTED THEIR ITEMS
BEFORE THEIR LIVES WERE SPENT

SO SHE'S OUT GIVEN HEAD NOW
TO ANYONE WHO WILL
SAY A NICE WORD TO HER
SO THEY CAN COP A FEEL

HER BABE'S ARE YOUNG GIRLS NOW
THEY'RE OUT DOIN WHO KNOWS WHO
IF IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR MOM THEN
THESE BOY'S WILL HAVE TO DO

I CAN'T SAY THAT I'M HAPPY
THE WAY THAT THINGS TURNED OUT
MY FRIEND IS TRAPPED IN THIS HELL
SEEMS THAT THERE'S NO WAY OUT

IT'S NOT ABOUT THE WHORING
OR SEX TO MAKE A SCORE
IT'S ALL ABOUT EXISTING
LIVING THIS LIFE ON THESE SHORES

SO AS THIS ENDS SO SOFTLY
I HOPE IT HELPS A FEW
TO UNDERSTAND SOME REASONS
WOMEN DO THE THINGS THEY DO

SOMETIMES THERE'S A STORY
WHY SOME WOMEN ARE SO KEEN
ON BEING DRAWN TO SLEAZY
AND TREATED OBSCENE BY MEN

RETURN TO WONDERLAND
RETURN TO WONDERLAND
TIME FOR A CHANGE OF PLANS
RETURN TO WONDERLAND
