And tonight the look that branded me   Was like a pool of burnt out gasoline   Shiny brown skin like the melting tar   On a sticky summer road   Finger on the trigger   Words like bullets blast the brain   Nails a brittle edge of a breaking glass in a bar room brawl   Lay myself like a big jack rat   Limp and lazy on the sallow soaked floor   And now you're feeling sorry   Now I'm shattered sad and worn out   Ragged raped of mind and soul   Empty like an ashtray   Damp and dirty grime and grease   A broken hearted effigy   A bone cracked cranium face frozen about you   The cheap wine that you drown the million little devils in your brain   Stained your mouth and leaves a purple trail down heartache lane   To slash my sickly senses leaving me in my own hell   The silent sob of shaking shoulders as the candle drips and dies   Driving out the tear smeared figure that I used to know as you (you)   Your heel grinds out the cigarette stub you used to know as me   Take a sip out of the dirty glass that helps to glitter up your dirty little life   Loneliness may eat me up   Keep determined to survive this time   And skin like cocaine numb and yellow cut with poisoned pain   Feel so shot and shocked and shattered and shamed   But the hero and the heroine   That scars and helps me mellow out again   And close my eyes in ecstasy of cleaning out the decaying crimes   That are sinking me in self pity   Meet my eyes in fired goodbye   Like a flick knife in the chest   And just a tiny touch of you   So dark and damned and easy   Hope fallen the prey   To a thousand use and abuse 'ems   For I know that in the end the poison darts of hate   Will eat you up and will rise up   From the oily sea of my waxy lazy gloom   And stick the final pin that sends you in humiliation from the room   And I know you though you play marlene dietrich in the bar   Sinking slurring out of key like some jarred and jaded star   But the colour seems so faded fake fur that you surely are   Your much more blue than angel say goodbye to style and pride   As you show your heart with a naughty little organ   That beats out the number on the knees   The sensuality of the glorious diamonte dress   That hangs from your shoulders baring your bruised and battered chest   As you beat out the rhythm of the song   The rhythm on the flesh singing 'einen mann' qualluded deluded   Never never you and though you play at   Cat and mouse by giving me your whisky mouth   Remember that this little snake kisses you to kill   And I'll buy them all drink to toast   And charge the bill to you   You'll never see a faster mover dart in for attack   Slither shining   Danger a winding belt of black   Treacle runs from all your pores   The venom from the bite   Revenge is sweet and strikes just like a mamba every night
