Van Damsel Lyrics
Surprise!
it's not what you thought as it runs
it was a dead stop as it runs
it was a dead light you're the fool
and we won't look back
let's tie those ankles to the railroad
don't stop to catch your breath
I bet your foresight never saw this
train wreck is right on time
a fucking punk
a fucking punk rock
you fucking punk
you fucking punk rock prostitute
you fucking punk
you fucking punk rock
you fucking punk prostitute
pick the open vein to shreds you should know that you're my death wish
bible thumping steeple fuck you are the worst of all scum
she wish right on time, you're my death wish
we were young and we were god
far away from us now
we don't want it, what you've got
we don't want it
we don't want it
we don't want it
we don't want it
and you've got it
she took my hand
she took my hand
but I never took hers
it's not what you thought as it runs
it was a dead stop as it runs
it was a dead light you're the fool
and we won't look back
don't stop to catch your breath
I bet your foresight never saw this
train wreck is right on time
a fucking punk rock
you fucking punk
you fucking punk rock prostitute
you fucking punk rock
you fucking punk prostitute
bible thumping steeple fuck you are the worst of all scum
she wish right on time, you're my death wish
far away from us now
we don't want it, what you've got
we don't want it
we don't want it
we don't want it
we don't want it
and you've got it
she took my hand
she took my hand
but I never took hers

I think It's about some punk rock or emo chick trying to be cool (as cool as such a person can be anyway) and is beign all slutty and is slitting her wrists. Thats what I get from this song anyway.
i liked this song before it was officially recorded. i heard a recording where they did this in a radio station studio once, and it was great. and then the cd comes out and i hear this song, and i'm like ".......................meh."
i don't like the new album at all.
Monticello, the recording you're thinking of is called "50V Phantom" which they played live even before Greg was in the band.
This song is amazing, especially because Pennie is drumming to do different time signatures for a little bit, freakin amazing...
i agree with i am the law, this version isn't any where near as good as the "50V phantom your band sucks" version
these lyrics aren't right. when he says "bible thumping steeple fuck you are the worst of all scum " he follows it up with "train wreck is right on time"
