lyrics

Does she still lie with her neck
through the rails of the deck
like Marie Antoinette,
but with even fewer worries
about the bourgeoisie,
saying, "We've all got our own cake to eat?"

And, does she let you,
like she let me,
lick her teeth clean?

Does she still dangle her legs
through a hole in the floor --
an alabaster vine to climb
to circumvent the locked door --
and, when, after much struggle,
you get to her,
does she only say, "Oh,
so you're my suitor?
I think I could do better?"

No, I know I could do better.

And does she still ride round in cars
with her head flung too far
out the window
and into opposing traffic,
irresistibly manic,
begging the driver,
"Quick, before it's too late,
accelerate?"

Do you lay awake at night,
giving yourself a fright
at the thought that your life
might be better off without her,
but uncertain how to shout her down
from the ledge
while narrowly escaping her bed?
