• The Lethal Temptress

oh I bled on the bed <br />
from a wound in my head <br />
on the night before I sent this<br />
welling with dread <br />
from the things that were said <br />
in the boardroom that left me defenseless<br />
<br />
and though you weren't there <br />
I could still feel you stare <br />
and your voice it rang cold and contemptuous<br />
so forgive me this morning <br />
if I should fall worn<br />
in the arms of the lethal temptress<br />
<br />
at a nightclub engagement <br />
we sang on the stage<br />
in a voice that broken and tuneless<br />
still it's better to work <br />
than to beg like a jerk <br />
for the kind of things we all find useless<br />
<br />
and hell hath no fury <br />
and dear I'm not worried<br />
I will see to my eternal penance<br />
just one more glass of gin <br />
before I fall back in <br />
to the arms of the lethal temptress<br />
<br />
so you frighten the ghost town <br />
and ground them all down <br />
til one day you'd reach a consensus <br />
and I know from your verse <br />
you put America first <br />
and all others you simply beat senseless <br />
<br />
and worship like this <br />
is to honor the fist <br />
and to conjure what's cruel and licentious <br />
and I don't know what's fair <br />
and I really don't care <br />
in the arms of the lethal temptress<br />
<br />
and I won't place a bet <br />
but I knew when we met <br />
that one day we'd come to regret this <br />
and that what once was love <br />
can turn quickly enough <br />
into something so hard and contemptuous <br />
<br />
and hell hath no fury <br />
and death is no jury <br />
our love's ended before I commence this<br />
but for one final sin<br />
you won't see me again<br />
in the arms of the lethal temptress<br />
<br />
but for one final sin<br />
you won't see me again<br />
in the arms of the lethal temptress
