Lyrics
Our children are like a pack of dogs
There are about ten of them
They were all born around the same time
They were all born with hair and teeth
They could run around within hours of being born
Within a few days they could all speak
Their bodies quickly became covered in coarse hair
Causing my husband great distress
They grew at a frightening pace
In just a few years they are now twice the size of my husband and I
We tried to maintain our authority over them but it was useless
They are so strong and willful
"We do not recognize your authority" they say
"We are now the masters of this house and you will answer to us"
"Daddy, mummy, fuck off mummy, fuck off daddy"
"Do as you are told mummy, do as you are told mummy"
"Do as you are told daddy"
We try to reason with them but it is no use
"Shut up mummy, shut up daddy"
They shout at us and hit us with sticks
They demand that we do not leave the house
And they made us surrender all our possessions to them
They drive our car around the town
They wear our clothes
They feed us on scraps
They make us sleep in the cellar
And we have to go to the toilet in a bucket
We don't know what to do
When people ask them what has happened to us
They tell them that we are dead
