lyrics

On the bas-reliefs
In the ruins of Tahte-Jamshid
The tragedy enters recorded history
The ancient warriors seeking glory and power
But their pride tucked in made their hearts sour.
It went on from the Persians
To the Celts and the Romans
Spread across the Europe in the Middle ages
All men slipping in their cages

There’s a tragedy in my pants
I need a helping hand
I guess it would make me feel little better
If we took care of this together
My pants, they are a cage to me

Later in the twentieth century
Women joined us in our misery
But made it a victory
In the course of history
Thought the cages set them free
All the girls and guys
It’s running down their thighs
Wrapping up them tight
Waist to ankles
It’s not what I chose I’ve
Been brought up in this I
Am fettered
It’s not what I chose I
Need to break free I
Am throwing my belt away
Oh let’s lose it together

There’s an emergency in your pants
Wouldn’t you like me to give you a hand?
Wouldn’t it make us feel little better
If we took care of this together?
Your pants, they are a gate to your heart
Your heart
