Tan Pantyhose

He likes the egg-shaped box, and what's inside.
I'll put them on, and swallow my pride.
He whispered dirty nothings about tan hose, the color is so ugly, I nearly froze.
No seams or fishnets or even blue?
C'mon baby, just for you!

Patent Leather Teardrops

Patent leather teardrops falling from my face
reflecting on what we once had.
Patent leather teardrops reminding me of something that was nothing. Do you feel as sad?
Down, down, down, down, tears falling down.
Down, down, down, down, tears falling down.
Down, down, down, down, tears falling down.
Patent leather teardrops falling from my face
reflecting on what we once had.
Patent leather teardrops reminding me of something that was nothing. Do you feel as sad?

Blade in My Bouffant
02:25
|

I keep a blade in my bouffant, you can't mess with me, you should be afraid of what you cannot see.
The blade is sharp and my bouffant is high,
a fancy masquerade in the sky.
This chick will take it out with a flick, it's really quick and super sly.
Blade in my bouffant.
Blade in my bouffant.
You know, there's a lot of things you can hide inside of a bouffant. Just use your imagination.
I like to keep a blade inside of mine.
I keep a blade in my bouffant, it's the one you left in my heart. I pulled it out, put it to use, and made a brand new start.
The blade is sharp and my bouffant is high,
a fancy masquerade in the sky. This chick will take it out with a flick, it's really quick and super sly.
Blade in my bouffant. Blade in my bouffant.

My Baby Doll Shoes
04:18
|

'Tis a shame, don't know what to do, accidentally threw out my baby doll shoes, had so many but only wore one of few.
I miss my baby doll shoes more than I miss you,
the sound they made when they hit the ground,
while on my feet cant be beat, 'cause I was leaving you.
You said they tied so sweet to my feet,
and even made your heart skip a beat, but then you broke my heart, so I did what I had to do and skipped out on you.
He sure could talk the talk, but couldn't seem to walk the walk, and this is what he said to me: "Baby, I got demons in me!" Honey, you sure do, and that ain't good enough for me, 'cause your talk is cheap.
I miss my baby doll shoes more than I miss you,
the sound they made when they hit the ground,
while on my feet cant be beat, 'cause I was leaving you.
You said they tied so sweet to my feet,
and even made your heart skip a beat, but then you broke my heart, so I did what I had to do, and skipped out on you,
and skipped out on you.

La La Land
05:34
|

We are nowhere, feeling out of place, beautiful thoughts race to fill your space. Irresolution tells me what not to do, you long to feel me as I long to forget you.
That heart of yours is bruised, like a sickly peach.
Dripping with sweet compulsion, unpredictable delight,
my best guess doesn't really know who you are tonight.
I'm going to send you back from where you came,
our imaginations, all dressed up with nowhere to go,
will gladly take the blame.
None of this is real, the more I resist, the more you feel.
I sense your duplicity, your words they give you away,
did you think I wouldnt notice the less you reveal, the more you say?
You tell me I'll saturate your thoughts tonight,
and from what you've told me, I think I'll come back tomorrow.
But my dear, its not what you think...eagerly I came to stay and left you with regret and sorrow.
That heart of yours is bruised, like a sickly peach.
Dripping with sweet compulsion, unpredictable delight,
my best guess doesn't really know who you are tonight.
I'm going to send you back from where you came,
our imaginations, all dressed up with nowhere to go,
will gladly take the blame.
None of this is real, the more I resist, the more you feel.
I sense your duplicity, your words they give you away,
did you think I wouldn't notice the less you reveal, the more you say?

Your Kiss is Bliss
03:44
|
|||
Devouring you with a kiss is bliss, holding you so tight I might cause blood to flow from your pores onto the floors of a hungry soul that will be satiated and integrated with yours.
Beauty is cruel and love is blind, but at this moment,
I just don’t mind.
Let’s pretend our hearts won't break for the kiss' sake.
It's just too divine.
Devouring me with a kiss is bliss, invading me like a clock invades an hour.
Let's savor the sweetness now before it turns sour.
I'll be gone before your heart lets go, it's what you get after this.
Beauty is cruel and love is blind, but at this moment,
I just don't mind.
Let's pretend our hearts won't break for the kiss' sake.
It's just too divine.

Dead Angel

Dead angel, I'm your dead angel.
Dead angel, I'm your dead angel.
Dead angel. Dead angel.
If you capture me a dead angel, I will always be yours. It shouldn't be hard you've already clipped my wings.
It shouldn't be hard, I've always loved you in spite of everything.
Dead angel. Dead angel.
If you capture me a dead angel, I will always be yours. You've had me feeling like a queen to your king.
You've sent me falling, feeling as if I'd lost everything.
Dead angel. Dead angel.
If you capture me a dead angel, I will always be yours. The pieces scattered from a heart shattered that still sings.
A new heaven is what we'll create with our mended wings.
Dead angel. Dead angel.
Dead angel, I'm your dead angel.
Dead angel, I'm your dead angel.

Coffin for Two
06:53
|
|||
It's a coffin for two, it includes you.
A proven love for eternity, that is you, that is me.
Six feet under is what we'’ll measure,
In a wooden box, death is treasure.
Long life with you, and you with me, in a coffin for two for eternity.
Long life with you, and you with me, in a coffin for two for eternity.
Like a blanket of skin you surround me, I inhale with greedy enthusiasm,
putting my withdrawal to rest, perfume should be as lucky as this.
Perfume...Perfume...
Perfume...Perfume...
It's a coffin for two, it includes you.
A proven love for eternity, that is you, that is me.
Six feet under is what we'’ll measure, in a wooden box, death is treasure.
Long life with you, and you with me, in a coffin for two for eternity.
Long life with you and you with me, in a coffin for two for eternity.
It's a coffin for two, it includes you.
It's a coffin for two, it includes you.
