Screaming Females - Ripe Lyrics






I dressed up the horses, set them loose
Sunk the needle deep and took in every drop
A violent path, an inch in time
An error, my device the anchor drops

I said peel the skin raw
I said peel the skin raw
I said peel the skin raw
Pinch 'til the feeling's gone

I said peel the skin raw
I said peel the skin raw
I said peel the skin raw
Pinch 'til the feeling's gone

Miles of horses gallop to the edge
I saw murder in their mouths we try the whip
Powerful, more muscle and stiff lip
The reins are chains and I have lost my grip

Try with all my heart I choke, I'm ready to go
And if you're through with me then please say so
Try with all my heart I choke, I'm ready to go
And if you're through with me then please just say so

I said peel the skin raw
I said peel the skin raw
I said peel the skin raw
Pinch 'til the feeling's gone

I said peel the skin raw
I said peel the skin raw
I said peel the skin raw
Pinch 'til the feeling's gone

I built this game to play and to pretend
You are a dark machine and I'm a cog
When engines crack, when fuel lines break off
I'll save your bits and let your motor rot

    Playing with these guys was the highlight of our career so far. How Marissa plays so much lead while she’s singing will forever be a mystery.

    They have many sold tickets from my wallet. I always buy an extra inviting whomever I think may go. Sadly, my last ticket @ Industry city went unused. Glad SF, or Industry City got it. Great band & great area/venue of Brooklyn

  28. J.... ....

    The whole band is good but Marissa is a magician of musical virtuosity. She can pull a hook out of anything or just rock the fuck straight out.

    J.... ....

    check out the video of Rose Mountain live they did for WXPN the intro is awesome

    J.... ....

    Her rifs are awesome, but certainly her voice is what brought me here.

  29. D.... ....

    Easily my favorite track from this band. This live version sounds phenomenal, too.

  35. H.... R....

    Oh my gosh I love Marissa so much @___@ <3

    H.... R....

    she a baddie

    H.... R....

    She’s a goddess. When we played with them, she put her head on our bassists belly as she shredded some fat solos. It was epic!

  36. S.... M....

    Bassist rockin' that Mr. Bean shirt.

  37. R.... N....

    The way the vocals and bass go together in the part starting at 2:12 is the BEST.
