about

Original song - DOYLE AND THE FUX

meth is a cruel mistress

lyrics

Shelly had to get tied up or put on handcuffs but,
Shelly don't like it rough.
Shelly knew it well, oh well, she knew it well enough.
They told Shelly to shut up.
Shelly never could escape after she got in.
Now her grin, withering
Shelly's in a bad place, Shelly made mistakes
Shelly never got paid, Shelly needs a break

Shelly was a whore you might have seen her before,
it's how she makes her living, it's how she gets her score

Shelly doesn't wanna do what she does anymore
Shelly doesn't wanna be seen as a whore
Shelly knew that she was worth more than she got paid
But those men need to get laid
Shelly doesn't wanna do it, she wants to be gone
But now Shelly's stuck hooked on
Methampheta, methampheta, methamphetamine
Her tears are glistening

Shelly was a whore you might have seen her before,
it's how she makes her living, it's how she gets her score

Shelly tells her pimp, she says she's leaving on a train
But to him, her life's a game
Shelly never could escape, attempts were in vain
Shelly didn't know just who to blame
Shelly tried to run and hide but it was too late
Her pimp's the one who picks her fate
Shelly was too young to die, but it's the only way
One OD later, Shelly's in the grave

Shelly was a whore you might have seen her before,
it's how she makes her living, it's how she gets her score
