There's no way to shout it
And no way but to marvel
No easy way about it
Go on, go on look it in the eye
You never linger long around it
The tiny fingers are strong
But it was you who found it
So go on, go on, go on
Kick her with your shoe
Do your very worst
Should it heal or hurt
Go on and release
Go on and release

When it stings, it stings
And I'm turning red
Oh why would you ever even try
With the world conspiring to make you hard
Who'd be so foolish as to try
Only a rebel would
Only a rebel would

I jumped the wall
But were you ready
Carried a house on my back to your door
The universe tipped over and I couldn't hold it steady
The window melt and blew me over still
So come on do your worst
Before I burst
Go on and release
Go on and release
Go on and release
Go on and release

When it stings, it stings
And I'm turning red
Oh why would you ever even try
With the world conspiring to make you hard
Who'd be so foolish as to cry
Oh but a rebel would
Only a rebel would
Only a rebel would
Only a rebel would
