[robert barnaby montgomery(presumed name)(cath’s dad)]
[cath]

[robert barnaby montgomery]
we scoured orphanages round the country
till we found a child with magic
your mother sensed a capacity for necromancy
and a storyline that could be tragic
specifically a possible future where in which were courted by a demon prince
we could save you from this i was sure
all we had to do we convince

you of the pitfalls of deviant romances
of blasphemous kisses
and stolen glances
any boy could be a fiend in disguise
don’t dream of folly it’s time to get wise

you’ve got one chance at life
you have to make it count
don’t give in to temptation
our world’s safety’s paramount
make it count

the demon prince has a wish to
reduce our moral cities to ash
but if your paths didn’t intertwine
none of that would come to pass
so beware of the pitfalls of deviant romances
of blasphemous kisses
and stolen glances
any boy could be a fiend in disguise
don’t dream of folly it’s time to get wise

you’ve got one chance at life
you have to make it count
don’t give in to temptation
our world’s safety’s paramount
make it count

[cath]
what the h+ll is this
who the h+ll am i supposed to be
why’s he shaped by entire life
according to my mum’s prophesy

the years i’ve wallowed in quiet shame
self+loathing, hatred and guilt
to lay it out in front of you
to destroy what self esteem i’ve built

not every boy is the same dad
so why shove aside my feelings
to ward off this h+llish prince
you saw any boys i may love as demons
and who are you mildred are you anyone i’ve really known
no matter the number of people under this roof
have i always been alone
[both singing over each other]
you’ve got one chance at life/the years i’ve wallowed in quiet shame dad
you have to make it count/self+loathing, hatred and guilt
don’t give in to temptation/to lay it out in front of you
our world’s safety’s paramount/to destroy what self esteem i’ve built

you’ve got one chance at life/not every boy is the same dad
you have to make it count/so why shove aside my feelings
don’t give in to temptation/to ward off this h+llish prince
our world’s safety’s paramountyou saw any boys i might love as demons

[robert barnaby montgomery]
so beware the pitfalls of deviant romances
of blasphemous kisses
and stolen glances
any boy could be a fiend in disguise
don’t dream of folly it’s time to get+no

[cath]
i’ve got one chance at life
i have to make it count
can’t force me to live under the weight
of some prophesy you used as an excuse for hate
make it count
