She Wolf
I reached out one night to grab a star, like
a fool I took her home.
With the hurt that I am feeling now, I should
have left alone.
I could see her there beneath the glow, of a
fading neon moon.
I knew if I was to make her mine, I'd have
to do it soon.
So I put on my party smile and headed across
the floor.
You know that I'd have been better off, to have
sashayed out the door.
You see the story goes like this, my beauty,
she grew fangs.
As long as there was beer and wine, there wasn't
any pain.
Soon they pushed us out the door, flashing sign
said "closed".
I may get shot for saying this, but what the hell,
here goes.
She pulled off that mask of make-up, put her
lashes in a drawer.
Her teeth are in a jar right there, that's not all,
there's more.
The fur that she was wearing, was no coat at
all.
She told me she forgot to shave, her nails
were really claws.
The girl I saw across the floor, came howling
straight at me.
screaming "give me wine or liquor, give me booze,
or let me be".
Well, you didn't have to tell me twice, I proceeded
to make tracks.
I knew that it was live or die, to the liquor
store out back.
I wasn't gone for very long, but by the time
that I returned.
She'd made a lair, there in my bed and a dozen
candles burned.
Her eyes gave off an eerie glow, I threw caution
to the wind.
There were places she took me that night, that I had
never been.
Well, wouldn't you know I fell in love, asked
her to be my wife.
Doctor says that I'll be fine. Scars shouldn't
last for life.
Now here is the moral to my tale, all single
men take heed.
You'll never satisfy her thirst, if it wasn't
meant to be.
They hang around the bars and clubs, forever
on the prowl.
Seeking out another soul, whose heart, they
can devour.
