Slackers Sabina
Sabina came from Texas with a scar across her cheek
a razor blade had cut right through it
She didnt talk about it
yeah but it was understood
that it had been done by a man she once loved
what an aweful thing to do man when she looked at you
there was a sadness in her eyes
it really made me wonder how someone could be so cruel
to cut into someone so nice
well sabina! sabina, tell me how it he be so cruel
Sabina what becomes you?
well Sabina she made up her mind she said "no never
again"
wheres a girl gonna get away froma man like that?
she didnt have much school no, shes your basic kind of
girl
gonna slip her into town with a monster in the woods
well the kids were grown they sold her home she wasnt
coming back
she her about a job in the middle of a war in the
kitchen in Iraaq
well, before she left they called to say that "wars no
place for you, you better stay"
I wouldnt walk away from me if you know whats good for
you
"No" she said "this is goodbye" and "by the way i hope
you die,
cant see anything being worse than being with you"
well Sabina! Sabina, tell me what else would you do?
Sabina what becomes you?
Sabina's got an army now that treats her with respect
she brings them to a kitchen in the middle of Iraq
and the men who work for her are like litte water ducks
that form in lines behind her
well Sabina! Sabina, tell me what else would you do?
Sabina what becomes you?
Sabinas in the desert now lookin up at the starts
she aint afraid of anything anymore, not even all the
bombs
