| She opens up and pulls you in, dabs a napkin on your chin
|
| She’s like an ornament on a hood, does the mambo like a piece of wood
|
| Taking you under, taking you under, for the duration
|
| The creamy liquid of your heart the vital substance that was part
|
| Of every beat and rhythm that has come unglued and riven
|
| Taking you under, taking you under, beyond sensation
|
| How could you lose so many things your keys your car your diamond rings?
|
| The very things that gave you inspiration
|
| How could you get sucked up like that how could you get so fucked up
|
| And let her treat you like an aberration
|
| It’s a character, character assassination
|
| The monkey’s paw and the powdered tusks the chicken feet and the corn husk Em
|
| The Spanish fly and the ginseng root the snake oil and the lotus shoot Am
|
| Ran out of magic, ran out of magic and stimulation
|
| How could you lose yourself like that? |
| It seemed so pure and violent
|
| Until she hit you up for small change and devastation
|
| How could you allow yourself to rot? |
| Now you’re vacant that’s your lot
|
| Now you’ve got to stop this disintegration
|
| Like a character character assassination
|
| Intro doo doos
|
| How could you drops so many balls? |
| How could you blow so many calls?
|
| And take so many falls and still keep on tripping
|
| How could you miss so many shots? |
| How could you write so many plots?
|
| And wind up with a book that’s less than gripping
|
| You drop her hand like a dead leaf steal her heartbeat like a thief
|
| Crush the bones beneath her skin the marrow and the calcium
|
| Now you’re under, now you’re under investigation
|
| For a character, character assassination
|
| Doo doos, fade |
