Justine Kurland: "Girl Pictures" and Blondshell's Music Video for "Salad"


  “I staged the girls as a standing army of teenaged runaways in resistance to patriarchal ideals,” 

Justine Kurland at Mitchell-Innes and Nash — Less Than Half

Keep an eye out for his pickup, I know all about it

I would take a gun out, put some poison in his salad

And it wouldn't be so bad, it wouldn't hurt the world

Look what you did, you'll make a killer of a Jewish girl

And he did it to a lady, oh, you have a family
How does someone end up with a stone in a chest cavity?
It wouldn't be so bad, it wouldn't hurt the world
Look what you did, now in my sleep I am a murderer

It doesn't happen to women, I know

I put it in a box in a TV show

It doesn't happen to women, I know

God, tell me, why did he hurt my girl?


And she took him to the courthouse and somehow he got off
Then I saw him laughing with his lawyer in the parking lot
It wouldn't be so bad, it wouldn't hurt like this
Look what you did, you'll make a killer of a pacifist

Gonna get big, gonna get big

I'm so scary, I can't stop having visions of following him

Gonna make it hurt, gonna make it hurt

But I don't know how to do that within the framework

'Cause we were never violent


'Cause we were never violent
