Woke up this morning
With all my ego defenses
Goin’ over and over
Everything over the fences
Who taught me how to repress
The words that cause dismay?
I’ve always wanted to appear
Smooth and taintless anyway
Law has made
Has made me Anna Freud
Watchin’ the parapraxes
Managin’ my display
Through deliberate mistakes
And by leading astray
I hope these aberrations
Are making me strong
My ego will remain fragile
No matter how much I pile
Law has made
Law has made
Law has made
Has made me Anna Freud
My lovely father
Keeps getting discredited
Nobody buys Oedipus anymore
Death drive is now outdated
But his blessed superego
Shall never be defeated
So the id will have to go
Get lost or put away
Cause law has made
Law has made
Law has made
Has made me Anna Freud
Law could make
Law can make
Law will make
Will make me Anna Freud
(Unafraid)

Unafraid
Woke up this morning
With you in our bed
Goin’ over and over
Everything you said
Who taught you how to speak
The words that you say?
I’ve always wanted to be
Talked to that way
Love has made
Has made you unafraid
Watchin’ my children
Findin’ their way
Through struggles and trials
And the hardway
I hope the roads they take
Are making them strong
I’ll still be on my knees
Long after they’re gone
Love has made
Love has made
Love has made
Has made you unafraid
My lovely mother
Has gettin’ on in years
And the way her body’s agin’
Brings her girls to tears
The way she trembles
With such effort she makes
She just says heaven’s getting
Closer each day
Cause love has made
Love has made
Love has made
Has made you unafraid
Love could make
Love can make
Love will make
Will make you unafraid
On the Geography of the Laws of Desire.....
