Tell me, tell me, tell me
How hard you had it
Tell me, tell me, tell me
How hard? How bad?
Tell me, tell me, tell me
How you couldn't really help it
How she should've known
A smile entitles for a grab
As a matter of fact, she was hardly attacked
As a matter of fact, she conjured a trap
As a matter of fact, she harbors a grudge
As a matter of fact, she garnered your trust
With her big, doe eyes, with sick, cold lies
We never crossed paths, her and I
She must've gotten cross with me cuz I ignored her
Then went running to our boss, f*cking claiming I forced her
As a matter of fact, I f*cking think that she's ugly
If I was half as fat, I wouldn't be that bubbly
And parade around in clothes that fit snugly
I'm sure for attention, where would she get it without me?
She had a crush on me, as clear as day
She's pretty scheming for a woman, for a girl her age
I wouldn't have my way with her, although she wanted
If I'm being honest, I wish she never crawled out of the forest
Tell me, tell me, tell me
How hard you had it
Tell me, tell me, tell me
How hard? How bad?
Tell me, tell me, tell me
How she's ruining your rep
How she should've known
It's either kissing back or a body bag
Really friendly at first, really helped me out at work
Really made me feel welcome and heard
Showed interest in me, browsed Pinterest with me
Then started making odd remarks about my skirt
I was uncomfortable, but I was new and the youngest
I felt like I would be no fun if I didn't laugh the loudest
I eventually got creeped out and told him to stop it
He told me I should be grateful I'm in a Christian country
He told me that elsewhere I'd be treated as property
I told him he's no better and that he should leave me be
He got so upset that he broke my mug
Stalked me on my socials and called me a
Then one evening I was jogging in this park
He came out of nowhere and dragged me into the dark
My supervisor said he said it was a joke gone wrong
My sixteenth birthday and I screamed my song
Tell me, tell me, tell me
How hard you had it
Tell me, tell me, tell me
How hard? How bad?
Tell me, tell me, tell me
How you're so sorry now
You should've known
A story is a lore 'bout you now
If you had any brain matter for it to matter
You'd understand that the real scammer
In these matters
Is the man with the manners of an Epstein apologist
You paint a picture of a sixteen year old as a masochist
You justify derision and a creepy imposition
But the lived experiences get no recognition
You don't wish to see, or hear, or speak
Not All Men but your solidarity's weak
I know a lot of survivors, not a single liar
If you know none, you've been deemed as one of 'em
Not trustworthy, violent in the face of rejection
Only palpable actions will change that perception
I'm not holding my breath, you're too selfish
You benefit from the fear too much, it's endless
I shouldn't draw comparison with the man in the woods?
You f*cking side with him but I wanna poison his food
Not all men
Always
Men
Always
Always
Men
