Lily la Tigresse

Striptease artists round the bend
Were preparing to the sound
But my gaze was not upon their ways
I was emberassed by my friend
And the room was new to someone else
But only I could clearly see
And a mutual friend had found me
With a look that should have want me
And my fate stood round the corner
And the room was getting warmer
Your words were sweet
She needs the country
She needs the earth, the trees, the sand
I need the ocean
Can't we be as nature planned?
Why can't we be as nature planned?
Why play not the infidel
Now perhaps I wish you'd have
Though at first I heard your gentle voice
I knew I wasn't going mad
Just then my best friend, mod and drunken
Took a tumble down the stairs
Like a stuntman on motion
Burning laughter and derision
But we bolstered in the corner
With the dark enclaves and water
Words were sweet
She needs the earth, the trees, the sand
I need the ocean
Can we be as nature planned?
Why can't we be as nature planned?
Took a 3-6-5
I counted closer to the end
Now I returned the afternoon
Just to see our mutual friend
"Well the room was empty", say the dancers
But your words come back to me
And not one night spent together
You took expire with love forever
Now I still look to the corner
Voids of words and plants and water
I still believe
She needs the earth, the trees, the sand
I need the ocean
Can't we be as nature planned?
Why can't we be as nature planned?
Why can't we be as nature planned?
