  • When I got to the party
    They gave me a forty
    And I must've been thirsty
    'Cause I drank it so quickly

    When I got to the bedroom
    There was somebody waiting
    And it isn't my fault
    That the barbarian raped me

    When I went to get tested
    I brought along my best friend
    Melissa Mahoney
    Who had once been molested

    And she knew how to get there
    She knew all the nurses
    They were all really friendly
    But the test came out positive

    Uh-oh

    I've seen better days but I don't care
    I just sent a letter in the mail

    When I got my abortion
    I brought along my boyfriend
    We got there an hour
    Before the appointment

    And outside the building
    There were all these annoying
    Fundamentalist Christians
    We tried to ignore them

    Oh-oh

    I've had better days but I don't care
    Oasis got my letter in the mail

    When vacation was over
    The word was all over
    That I was a crack whore
    Melissa had told them

    And so now were not talking
    Except we have tickets
    To see blur in October
    And I think were still going

    Oh-oh

    I've seen better days but I don't care
    Oh I just got a letter in the mail

    Oasis sent a photograph
    Its autographed and everything
    Melissa's gonna wet herself
    I swear Writer/s: Amanda Palmer
