Too Fast |
He checks his wrist |
And chuckles to himself, «Half-past a freckle» |
She meets him in line, just in time |
For the half-past a freckle show |
Lips press her flesh |
With a wet sticky kiss |
The smell on his breath |
Makes her turn her face |
As she starts to get a little sick |
He hails a cab |
She gasps for breath during the drive |
She dives into his pants |
And he looks as if he’s shocked |
As if she should have knocked |
He says, «You're too fast for me |
You’re too, too fast for me |
You’re too, too fast for me» |
She says, «Maybe you’re too slow» |
Back at the motel |
He mentions his job is going well |
She unbraids her hair |
And for the ten-thousandth time |
Asks him again |
«What is it you do there?» |
He says, «I work at the Popsicle plant |
I pour the dye in the number five machine |
I am responsible for turning Popsicles green» |
«But you’re too fast for me |
You’re too, too fast for me |
You’re too, too fast for me» |
She says, «Maybe you’re too slow» |
She, she shimmies 'round the room |
Ha-ha-has while he explains |
She caresses a lamp |
Just to see his face full of longing and pain |
He says, «Let's do it on the floor» |
She says, «Tickle me instead» |
Well, he rolls his eyes so she slaps his thigh |
He says, «What did you do that for?» |
She says, «You're too fast for me! |
You’re too, too fast for me |
You’re too, too fast for me» |
He says, «Maybe you’re too slow» |
You’re too, too, too fast for me |
Oh, you’re too, too, too fast for me |
You’re too, too, too fast for me |
She says, «Maybe you’re too» |
He says, «Maybe you’re too» |
She says, «Maybe you’re too slow» |
