danger song

There once was a man
That cried like a child
He escaped and he ran
But the burn wasn’t mild

Then there was a girl
That was frothy and spoiled
Though aware of the world
He said, “Listen, child-

I’d slice up the moon
If you needed me to-
You’ve got a harpoon
That’s caught me right through
It’s the things that you do,
The things that you do,
I’m just not immune
To the things that you do”

She held onto her breath
In result of her fear
With a hand on his chest
And one more on a beer

Though clothing was scarce
And the kitchen got hot
She said she was scared
Though she liked him a lot

“I can’t hold a tune
But see what I can do
I’ll sing to you, croon,
Til you beg me not to.
It’s the things that you do,
The things that you do
I’m just not immune
To the things that you do”

She begged to move slow,
She was scared of the fast
But in the after glow
Those words didn’t last

She could feel her heat flip
From hot back to cold
For she tried not to slip
Into ways of the old

"It’s the things that you do
The things that you do
I’m just not immune
To the things that you do."

she bargains like a lawyer

I hope you are aware
that I can see right
through your veins.
I like the place
it perches me.
I hope you're not afraid.

I have come prepared
to worm my way
into your brain.
I think it might
be working.
I hope you're not afraid.

I'm loading up the
deck so I can
finally win the game.
You've brought
a lot of chips.
I hope you aren't afraid.

I've sewn my mouth
to quiet while you
drove a girl insane.
But I'm not
crazy this time.
I hope you aren't afraid.

I strive to thrive
over you, turning
pleasure out of pain.
You can't go
back after this.
I hope your aren't afraid.

I'm sucking all
your blood, your
body will be drained.
Your platelets taste
like candy.
I hope you aren't afraid.

I'm lying on your
pelvis. I can tell
you're glad I came.
We both know that
nothing compares.
I hope you're not afraid.
