If what I am is what I am 'cause I does what I does
Then brother, get back, 'cause my breast's gonna bust open
You'll never see the courage I know
Its color's richness won't appear within your view
I wanna be ready for what you do
And I've been swinging around at nothing
Where's the turn?
I don't want a home, I'd ruin that
Home is where my habits have a habitat
Why give it a turn?
And then that way you'll let me stay, skirting the skirt like I want to
And I will try hard to hold on to you with open arms
But don't let me ruin me
So don't even ask me
I'm much better off, the way things are
But I'm good at being uncomfortable so I can't stop changing all the time
I notice that my opponent is always on the go
I wanna make a mistake, why can't I make a mistake?
I'm always doing what I think I should
No more maladies
I'm so tired of cryin'
You'd think I was a siren
The next one up, a contemptible snob
He lived to put things in their place
And that's why the devil just can't get around me

09.12.2025 17:25 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I've done wrong and I wanna suffer for my sins
I've come to you 'cause I need guidance to be true
And I just don't know where I can begin
Ooh, what I need is a good defense
I spent all I had to get it back
And now it seems I've been outbidded
My peace and quiet was stolen from me
When I was looking with calm affection
And I went crazy again today
Looking for a strand to climb, looking for a little hope
Baby said he couldn't stay, wouldn't put his lips to mine
A fail to kiss is a fail to cope
I thought he was a man but he was just a little boy
Hunger hurts
You moved like honey in my dream last night
Yeah, some old fires were burning
You came near to me and you endeared to me
But you couldn't quite discern me
And at my own suggestion
I will ask no questions
While I do my thing in the background
Oh mister, wait until you see
What I'm gonna be
I've got a plan to demand and it just began
And then letting it go by the boards
O' sailor, why'd you do it
I'll wait by the backstage door
While you try to find the lines to speak your mind
Don't make me explain
Just tolerate my little fist tugging on your forest chest
I looked like a neon zebra, shaking rain off her stripes
And the rivulets had you riveted to the places that I wanted you to
Kiss me when we find some time alone
And then we can do anything we want
Oh, the periphery
I lost another one there
He found a prettier girl than me
The path is clear to follow through

Gonna renounce the mill a little while and
If we had a double-king-sized bed
We could move in it and I'd soon forget
Gonna keep you reaching
When I'm gone like yesterday
When I'm high like heaven
Shall I release you?
Must I release you?
As I rise to meet my glory
I'll know, I'll know

I say tell me the truth, but you don't dare
You say love is a hell you cannot bear
And I say gimme mine back and then go there, for all I care
