She says, nobody wants to believe You’re the same as Everyone What makes makes me Unique My dark life
There was a kink in the World Sent that statue Tumbling An invitation east So we can watch it all Crumbling She came on like a light And so softly she spoke You don’t know You don’t know about My dark life
And you think you’re a Guest You’re a tourist at best Peering into the Corners of My dark life
Now that you, you tear Your dreams From consumptive Ballerinas She’ll stand on tiptoe For you In a grey and tattered Tutu
She stay’s where She is Cause of voyeurs like These With an accusative look That says My dark life
Rubber men await you There In each beguiling alley To shake you and to Pierce you and remind you of My dark life
Enter the pious elite In their preening finery And bang the tambourine They’re dining on rice Paper scenery
See how the villain Attracts Envious glances from Everyone She’s waitressing by day It doesn’t bring in Much money now
And as strong concealed Arms Set off bells and alarms In the strangest Locations of My dark life
But the fantasies Slipped As he tipped her in Cigarettes She tries to smile very Graciously When she wants to kill Him
Now the victory is sweet You get down upon your Knees It’s the perfect Position For kissing west on Leather
So they came from ugly, Texas And from nameless, Tennesee From peculiar, missouri And from places closer To me
