Sossity You're A Woman |
Hello you straight-laced lady, |
dressed in white but your shoes aren’t clean. |
Painted them up with polish |
in the hope we can’t see where you’ve been. |
The smiling face that you’ve worn |
to greet me rising at morning -- |
sent me out to work for my score. |
Please me and say what it’s for. |
Give me the straight-laced promise |
and not the pathetic lie. |
Tie me down with your ribbons |
and sulk when I ask you why. |
Your Sunday paper voice cries |
demanding truths I deny. |
The bitter-sweet kiss you pretended |
is offered, our affair mended. |
Sossity: You’re a woman. |
Society: You’re a woman. |
All of the tears you’re wasting |
are for yourself and not for me. |
It’s sad to know you’re aging |
Sadder still to admit I’m free. |
Your immature physical toy has grown, |
too young to enjoy at last your straight-laced agreement: |
woman, you were too old for me. |
Sossity: You’re a woman. |
Society: You’re a woman. |
