Fara Palmer: Music

Screwed

(Fara Palmer)

Fara Palmer, Kelsey Coutts, and Peter Kilgour c2007

VERSE: This is a song for them whoever they are/gettin' on my nerves with their words and their points of view/Who asked them to?/Opinions are like assholes everybodies got one/It's gettin' to the point where i'm gonna get a shotgun/Turn it on you, cuz you're so damned rude/
Rewind, wait a minute/it's my life don't get up in it/It's my turn now and you're gonna get it good

CHORUS:
Watcha gonna do when you're screwed, when you're screwed/when we come for you then it's through, then it's through/and it's all on you, so watcha, watcha gonna do?
You really shoulda knew, thought it through, thought it through/but it's too late now, now you're screwed, now you're screwed/and it's all on you/so go ahead boo-hoo

VERSE: Some people act wise like they have all the answers/Puttin on airs pickin' words that sound real sweet/But talk is cheap/
Watch'em shake your hand then stab you in the back/What they don't understand is we know how to fight back/What will they do?/It's time they knew/
Sweep it under the carpet/
Deny never ever own it/
The game is up you can run but you can't hide/

CHORUS:
Watcha gonna do when you're screwed, when you're screwed/when we come for you then it's through, then it's through/and it's all on you, so watcha, watcha gonna do?
You really shoulda knew, thought it through, thought it through/but it's too late now, now you're screwed, now you're screwed/and it's all on you/so go ahead boo-hoo

STORY BEHIND THE SONG: Kelsey(my wicked stepdaughter) and I wrote this song last summer while we were out in the Skeetch mountains checking on the ripeness of the soapberries. Some of the berries were ready, but not enough to make juice later. We had a great time though, laughed hard, and wrote most of this song. The rest of the song(total musical composition) was finished by Peter Kilgour and myself at Beat Productions in Chilliwack, BC.
