The Tradition Lyrics
Oh the loneliest girl in town
Is bought for pennies a price
we dress her up
In lovely gowns
She’s easy on the eyes
Her soul is black
and it’s a fact
that her sneer will eat you alive
the buyer always
brings her back
because all she does is cry
So take what you want
Take what you can
Take what you please
Don’t give a damn
Ask for forgiveness
Never permission
Take what you want
Take what you can
Take what you please
Don’t give a damn
It’s in the blood and
This is tradition
Oh the loneliest girl in town
Was bought for plenty a price
They dress her up
In golden crowns
His smile hides a lie
She’s smiles back
But it’s a fact
That her fear will eat her alive
She got the life that she wanted
But now all she does is cry
Take what you want
Take what you can
Take what you please
Don’t give a damn
Ask for forgiveness
Never permission
Take what you want
Take what you can
Take what you please
Don’t give a damn
It’s in the blood and
This is tradition
You can’t take it back
It’s good as gone
flesh Amnesiac
this is your song
And I hope what’s left will last
all summer long
and they said that boys were boys
But they were wrong
Take what you want
Take what you can
Take what you please
Don’t give a damn
Ask for forgiveness
Never permission
Take what you want
Take what you can
Take what you please
Don’t give a damn
It’s in the blood and
This is tradition
Take what you want
Take what you can
Take what you please
Don’t give a damn
Ask for forgiveness
Never permission
Take what you want
Take what you can
Take what you please
Don’t give a damn
It’s in the blood and
This is tradition
