Beware the Women

AND WOULD YOU LIKE TO LISTEN,
I’LL TELL YOU A STORY
IT’S A LITTLE SCARY AND A LITTLE GORY
IT’S ABOUT THE MONSTERS,
THAT WALK AMONG US NOW
JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE SAFE, AND SOUND...
I KNOWWWWW, THAT WOMEN LOOK NICE
BUT KNOOOOOW THIS, THEIR TEETH WERE MADE TO BITE
BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE THE WOMEN
NIGHT FALLS ON THE CITY
THE STREETLIGHTS FLASH THEIR SMILES
BUT AMID THE SHADOWS,
SOMETHING’S RUNNING WILD
I SAY BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE THE WOMEN
BEWARE THEIR BODIES, BEWARE THEIR MINDS
BEWARE THEIR KINDNESS,
IT’S JUST A MATTER OF TIME
BEFORE THEY HUNT AND SNARE YOU,
JUST LIKE THEY HUNTED ME
VICIOUS WHORES! WHEN BLOOD’S ON THEIR HANDS THEY’RE HAPPPPPPY
I KNOWWWWW, WHAT I MUST SOUND LIKE
BUT HEED MY WARNING, YOU BETTER THINK TWICE
BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE THE WOMEN
BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE THE WOMEN

What a Scene
02:05
|
|||
Aw Pygmalion, you've got to come
I don't have to come
But its your show, you've got to go
What'll the people say, It'll be such a scene
Oh Pygmalion, it'll be fun
It's never fun
That's not true, and you know it
Remember the time when that guy downtown
who was wearing a kilt, and he wanted a show-down
so you swung your fist, but he ducked and slipped
and when his skirt came up I could barely look...
Do you remember it?
We was wearin’ purple panties.
Remember the time time when you took that girl
To the room in the back, and in for the kill
And you kissed that girl, who wasn’t a girl
It was such a sight, it was such a scene,
the best lookin’ woman...I’d ever seeeeen.
We're all singing our songs
Me and the world, we don't get along (I'm gonna prove you wrong)
Cause I got so much to say
To the darkness, hey
You can't shut it all out
You gotta shout it all out
But I like it here, where no one's about
It's clean and its calm (you can't call this clean)
You know what I mean
Its all coming about friend, It's all coming tonight, Its all coming tonight
There's so much to see, And ways to die
Oh, Pygmalion, Just to be alive tonight

Part 1
Tell me where you are.
I’m at home
How old are you?
I’m eleven. And it’s late and I’m trying to sleep, but I can can’t, I can hear—
What?
I can hear—
What?
My father—and he’s crying
Are you ashamed?
Men aren’t supposed to cry
Are you frightened?
Men aren’t supposed to cry
You’re crying too--
Well, wouldn’t you if your father, if your father—
What?
Part 2:
I’m leaving…
Pease don’t go.
I’m leaving— please write and let me know
Don’t I buy you pretty things? Whatever flowers the spring rain brings? Don’t you remember when we met…
I am just a woman. Trapped, lonely—just a woman. And if you’ve loved me, let’s end what we’ve begun. I need light—No!
I need air—No!
I need his touch everywhere—
Whore!
Part 3
Oh Pygmalion, Honoring your father’s shame won’t bring him back to life.
Honoring your mother’s blame won’t punish what she sacrificed.
The trust of your father, the home that they had built.
But think of your mother—the sorrow, and the guilt?
...Losing her only son, whose life had just beguuuuuun? She was just a woman.
Can’t you see what I’m up against
Her joy came at our expense
Can’t you see … she haunts me, she haunts me
Doesn’t everyone deserve to be happy?
Your mother’s just a person too, a woman who was in lo-ov-ove?
The day she walked away I swore I’d never let anyone in
I swore, then and there, I’d never love let begin
Part 4:
It’s a lie—
I loved you as hard as I could
It’s a lie—
If I could save you this hurt I would—
Part 5:
Oh, when you’re a child
they fill you with nonsense, let your heart run wild
It’s all a ploy it’s all a lie
It’s a tale we’ve told a thousand times
And though we grow to know the truth
That there ain’t no one, who’s made for you
We tell the tale, we tell it again
We have the children kneel, Make them say
amennnn
Here it comes...she’s walking out again—
Part 6:
Mama?
My dearest darling, my only son—
Say goodbye boy, my darling one. Your mother is fucking someone…!
—Paul!
Your mother’s breaking our home—
Paul!
Our family—
Please! You’ll forgive me in time—
No I won’t—
Let my life be miiiiiiine! Pygmalion—
I’ll never be far away—
Please. Please. Please. Please. Please—
stay

Thy Kingdom Come
04:31
|

I want my cheating bastard husband dead!
I want the promotion I deserve.
I want to be seen! Why am I invisible?
I want to be beautiful!
I want my mother to live!
And the people bowed and prayed
Why have you forsaken us to the neon Gods we made
We wine (We wine) - We dine (We dine)
And everything is fine, It’s the transubstantiaaaaation!
I want some solace in this lonely world
I want a big-titted wife!
I want a new life!
I want a book deal!
I want room for a garden!
I want to walk again!
I want to be rich
I want world peace
And gonorrhea for my enemies
And the people bowed and prayed
Why have you forsaken us to the neon Gods we made
We wine (We wine) - We dine (We dine)
And everything is fine,
Consecration, masturbation, paid vacation, last cremation
Get in line fer your souls’ salvation…!
Shhhhhh. You were moved by the spir-it.
(CHEERS)
The spir-it.
(CHEERS)
THE SPIR-IT.
Our mother (mother… mother…)
Who art in heaven (who art in heaven)
hallowed be thy name. (hallowed be thy name)
In Heaveeeeeennnnnn. In heavennnnnn. In heavennnnn.
In heavennnnn
Thy kingdom come (Thy kingdom come)
Thy will be done (Thy will be done)
on earth as it is in heaven.
In Heaveeeeeennnnnn. Heavennnnnn. Heavennnnn.
Our mother who art in heaven —
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven. In Heaveeeeeennnnnn. Heavennnnnn. Heavennnnn.

Art
01:26
|

So much of my life
I’ve felt so alone
And often I’ve wondered
Is this my fate
Is this my way
was I meant to wander
If it was too late
To ever orchestrate
A song for two
But when I look at your face
I’m reminded
Of what my mind did
Someone, someone who understands
Someone who sees things
eye to eye
So why don’t we try?
To be something better
Than we are alone
Something better
Than the world has shown
Is possible
Art is where the magic is
Art is where the secrets lie
where I found something good,
yeah finally gooood
I found you and I.

Narcissus
02:48
|

Was it a womb, Was it a tomb
Felt I was being woven
On a giant loom
Of silken thread
Am I dead? Am I dead? Am I dead?
Was it the moon, Who said it’s too soon
But when I opened my eyes
I was already in blooooom
In flowers of red
Am I dead? am I dead? am I dead? am I deaddddd?
But these four walls get mighty small
any creature of blood and bone not of stone
would know this
And it might be swell, living alone
nobody telling me I gotta stay home
but you should stay, beside me
cause I’d get awful lonely
with nobody to talk to
nobody to talk to
But when I opened my eyes
I wasn’t made of string
I wasn’t made of anythinggg
‘Cept what’s in your eyes
My reflection
Is a recollection
Of a dream, of a dream, of a dream,
Of a dreammmmm

Sheep
03:05
|

I know, your face… and its
…strange but true
And it’s, touched with grace.. and I know that I
know you
it’s shimmering… this light all around you
its blinding, how can I find you
I wake alone… with something to
hide
[chorus]
This Life I’ve been dreaming of
Is only fantasy
Oh, It comes in fits of sleep
but its never enough
I keep waking up, the gears never stop
it seems I’m just twisting my sheets
and counting my sheep…
I’m counting my sheep….
I’m counting my….
You’ve walked with me, ghostly
...hand in mine
I walked these streets, made up of
fog and sighs
I’m utterly… under this spell and I’m
out of strength, so I will surrender
and fall to sleep… in searching for wonders
you pose to me
[chorus]
This Life I’ve been dreaming of
Is only fantasy
Oh, It comes in fits of sleep
but its never enough
I keep waking up, the gears never stop
it seems I’m just twisting my sheets
and counting my sheep…
I’m counting my sheep….
I’m counting my….

Just an Animal
02:53
|
|||
If you believe
Everything that you’ve been told
There’s nothing much to live for
Just waiting to get old
Too old to say what you mean
Too old to give a damn
Will you hear the train again
The whistle wrapped in fog
My hearts beating too fast
Can’t stay here for too long
The train’ll take me away
You can beg I’ll never stay
[Chorus]
Ain’t it something, ain’t swell
I’m all alone, and its just as well
I’m homeward bound
I’m just waiting for a sound
Aint’ it something, ain’t it fine
Cus you were so wrong
And you ain’t on my mind
I’m just an animal
And I wasn’t born to please
Walkin slow, walking fast,
My feet don’t mind
Running fast running slow,
My body’s fine
But I can’t lie to you
Cus I can see through you
To your ribs & guts & teeth & brains
& bones & tongue & toes
I’m far from home
Suppose I’m just born to roam
[Chorus]
Ain’t it something, ain’t swell
I’m all alone, and its just as well
I’m homeward bound
I’m just waiting for a sound
Aint’ it something, ain’t it fine
Cus you were so wrong
And you ain’t on my mind
I’m just an animal
And I wasn’t born to please
But I can’t lie to you
Cus I can see through you
To your ribs & guts & teeth & brains
& bones & tongue & toes
I’m far from home
Suppose I’m just born to roam
[Chorus]
Ain’t it something, ain’t swell
I’m all alone, and its just as well
I’m homeward bound
I’m just waiting for a sound
Aint’ it something, ain’t it fine
Cus you were so wrong
And you ain’t on my mind
I’m just an animal
And I wasn’t born to please

My Kind of Woman
03:45
|
|||
I want you to know, that you’re special
I want you to know, you carry a flame
I want you to know, that there’s no devil
And there’s no god
So don’t be ashamed, of your brain
Of your body or your mind
Its preordained, that we’re stained
With the blood of these dark times
Its alright to wonder at the sky
Just Where the hell we went wrong
As sure as thunder follows rain
Lashing the clouds with its song
It’s alright to fall down, to stumble
To give me a piece of your mind
Its alright to freak out, to fuck up
It’s alright to cryyyyyyy
You’re my kind of woman
You’re my kind of girl
You got a grudge or a dick
two swinging tits and some shit to kick
You’re my kind of women
If your dreams are broken teeth,
a flashing cursor computer screen
You’re my kind of woman
If you’re lonely, if you’re screaming,
begging it to stop
If you’re dancing, if you’re bleeding
if you’re hungry to be on top
If you’re soft as an ostrich plume,
rough as spanish leather
If your pussy likes to bite,
if you’re frightened of bad weather
If you’re wearin denim, paisley,
glitter or a smock
If yer thin as ghandi
fat as Jobba the hut
If yer gay as hell
or just like the limelight – Liza
If you’re half in love with Audre Lorde,
If you read porn, to vent out your frustrations
Jesus has you up in arms,
If you can’t stand alarms
If bubblegum, makes you queasy
You’re flaunting your ass from 6 blocks away
you’ve got a beard and you like it that way…
So don’t be alarmed
By your charms
Your just what my life needs
Its preordained
That we’re stained
With the blood of these dark deeds
Your softness is not weakness
And I’ll never let you down
I won’t let them convince you
That you’re nothing less
Than the very best thing around
If I was a plane I could soar
Above the hills of your mind
I could see the plan, that great scheme
We’re all gonna dieeeeeee
You’re my kind of women
You’re my kind of girl...

An animal in pain is an animal you can help.
There’s a lot of senseless death
People can’t seem to stop themselves
Ending lives that are shining,
light taken before its grown dim
Cruelty we can’t counter Boy,
…. but the pain — we can help with.
Sometimes you have to kill Trixie
Things in pain — are they living at all?
They’re dying slow Boy, their bodies and their minds
Things in pain—
ease them into a soft dark fall.
soon enough they’ll feel nothing at all
Pain is just another story, and death is the just the cure
Are any of us living? We really can’t be sure ...
