Lyrics Crazy Ex–Girlfriend Cast – Strip Away My Conscience

Text:

Rebecca (dancers):
My whole life
I’ve wanted to be bad
(To be bad, to be bad, to be bad)

But whenever I tried
The result was always sad
(So sad, so pathetic, weak and sad)
However, now I know
A certain beau
Who doesn’t worry ’bout what’d decent or right
(That’s you!)

Nathaniel
Yeah, I got that

Rebecca:
So how ’bout now
You teach me how
To be ruthless and cruel
Yeah! I’m ready tonight!

So strip away my conscience
Peel away my values
Rip off my compassion with your teeth
Pound away my morals
Spank off all my kindness, ooh!
Expose the dormant bitch that lies beneath

You devil
Lead me to the dark side
Like a lamb to the slaughter
Then do me in a hot tub filled with evil ‘stead of water
Let’s make war not love all night and day
It’s hot here in hell so…

Strip it all away

Stop hitting yourself!

Rebecca (dancers):
Yeah baby
You’re a soul-sucking, corporate piece of trash
Who only cares about sex, lies and cash
So tell me ’bout your sins
And shock me with their luridness
Let me be your pupil
Let me choke on your cocksuredness
(Innuendo!)

Strip away my conscience
Tear away my jew guilt
Kiss around my sense of right and wrong
But not on it, it’s sensitive
Baby, it’s such foreplay
When you slither like a moray (Eel!)
It’s worth the discomfort of my thong
You’re like Professor Snape in his sad dungeon with his potions
‘Cause somehow you don’t have that sucky thing called emotions
Fifty shades of morally grey
And thongs are so uncomfortable so…

Rebecca:
Strip it all away
Strip it all away
Strip it all away

That was just up my butt
