Domesticated

家畜
"Kachiku"
"Domesticated"

So, like you always do,
Talking to me with stinking breath
With that look like you know everything.
With that look like you know everything.

The things you say are always the same.
Things I just don't care about.
With that look like you know everything.
With that look like you know everything.

As far as he's concerned, I'm just a dog;
Put me on a chain and I'll be quiet.
Come on, be a good doggy.
Come on, be a good doggy.

So, just like always,
Talking with stinking breath
With that look on your face like you know everything.
With that look on your face like you know everything.

The things you say are always the same.
Things I just don't care about.
With that look like you know everything.
With that look like you know everything.

He must think it all went nicely.
He must think I'm all tame.
But the pet dog retains the will
To bite off the master's neck at leisure.

I'm just acting like I'm subdued.
I'm just acting like I'm subdued.
I'm just acting like I'm subdued.
I'm just acting like I'm subdued.
I'm just acting like I'm subdued.
I'm just acting like I'm subdued.
I'm just acting like I'm subdued.
