I’d like to maul your fucking face. Then crush your skull to dog buffet. I’ll take the food right out of your mouth. Then suck your bones and spit them out. Claw you clean from throat to tail, Expose entrails of your betrayal. I’m an animal. I don’t belong in your house. (I kill you. I kill you. I kill you. I kill you.) Let me out. Life kills: I stuffed, mounted, and took some stills. You’re just some meat and one day’s fuel. Life kills. Can change the face but not this pill. It’s you or me and both eventual. Burn the sea and light the sky. The reign stops now. Your bloodline’s dry. I’ll abort ten thousand of your babies. You will never occupy me. I’ll shove rusty hangers deep inside. I’ll kill me so your future dies. Enter your body like war. (I kill you. I kill you. I kill you. I kill you.) It’s what it’s all for. Life kills: I stuffed, mounted, and took some stills. You’re just some meat and one day’s fuel. Life kills. Can change the face but not this pill. It’s you or me and both eventual. All the blood runs in circles ’til you’re all the way gone. All the blood runs in circles ’til you’re all the way gone. All the blood runs in circles ’til we’re all the way gone. All the blood runs in circles ’til we’re all the way gone.

Opened your mouth. Removed all doubt. Retched your brain out. Ooh. Ah. Ooh Ah. Spill your guts. It’s my GPS to your home address. Ooh. Ah. Ooh. Ah. You’re just a cup that I fill up. And then sew shut the fuck up. Chin up. You’re cut. You a- gree finally with me. Your mouth’s gonna get you in all kinds of trouble. Moan, shout. It won’t help you and (will) just make it double. Your mouth’s an intoxigen strawberry bubble. Your mouth’s gonna get you in all kinds of trouble. Bold door matte lip overdrawn with Plump it up stick Ooh. Ah. Ooh. Ah Spit shine, thick gloss Facial labia fat from hittin’ ya. Ooh. Ah. Ooh. Ah. Your slick lick is obscene and sick. So, I’ll cover it and your nose choke hold You’ve no Control over me. Your mouth’s gonna get you in all kinds of trouble. Moan, shout. It won’t help you and (will) just make it double. Your mouth’s an intoxigen strawberry bubble. Your mouth is going to get you in all kinds of trouble. Fingers in mouths. Mouths are fingers. I wouldn’t say this publicly…but… Your mouth’s gonna get you in all kinds of trouble. Moan, shout. It won’t help you and (will) just make it double. Your mouth’s an intoxinagen strawberry bubble. Your mouth’s gonna get you in all kinds of trouble.

about

The Beauty Shop is a song cycle and newest album by Kristeen Young. The album is comprised of musical snapshots in the life story of a serial killer, with each song inspired by a major emotion (ie. one song being rage, one being grief, etc.) But, really, the album is about how life kills our emotions. It’s also inspired by the little beauty shop in the ominous foster/adopted home in St. Louis, MO. USA where Kristeen spent her childhood. It also IS the USA. The album’s music would be best described as multi-genre or no genre. But the constant in all the songs is Kristeen’s emotive, operatic voice and her dissonant, percussive piano playing.
