Society Hook

Gimme a woman

With brass knuckles in her purse

Gimme a widow

Who drinks whiskey in the hearse

Gimme a poet with a pinup disposition

Gimme a lady who won't hesitate to kick somebody's teeth in

Gimme that woman with a dirty word

"Jab"

And a mean society hook

♪

Gimme a woman

Who says everything she feels

Gimme a goddess

Who reads Hemingway in heels

Gimme an optimistic anarchistic killer

Gimme a lady who won't hesitate to teach me how to thrill her

Gimme that woman with a dirty word

"Jab"

And a mean society hook

Let's me bare witness to her darkness when she's mourning

And when she's threatened, goes to war without a warning

Let's me bare witness to her darkness when she's mourning

And when she's threatened, she'll go to war

She'll go to war

She'll go to war

She'll go to war

She'll go to war without a warning

♪

And gimme a soldier

Who takes everything she needs

Gimme a heathen

Who holds heaven in her teeth

Gimme a guts and swagger, broken dagger-ella

Gimme a heavy bottle, anti-patriarcho-fortune teller

Gimme that woman with a dirty word

"Jab"

And a mean, mean, mean, mean society hook
