But really
What were those nights
Not common fucking
But trauma-spelunking
Rude as a cavity search
Hung up the phone
In harsh relief
Selfish, separate, stark
Vantablack cloak
Angles sharp
Profile turning away
A certain two that could never be one
From the needle and the damage
I run

I’m a pioneer machinist
Fingers tough from precision tinkering
In bollock-blasted obscurity
You’re tender as a infant’s feet
And your gimmick devices infuriate me
Lascivious mathematics
Clogs on cobbles in my head
Born, bred, blitzed
Different stages of emptiness

Instead of a red dress
Rebecca drags me into a Caloric

He hauls himself home a heap of meat
Slashed with slats of Venetian blinds
I tend the pile
My favorite color
Is his black eye
It means
It’s time for me to shine

It’s late and my calendar’s empty
So let’s see how far his fetish goes
How dangerous could it be
A sniveling rodeo clown wants a bucking bronco
If this is degradation
Then why when I set him back on the street
Lightheaded and spent
Do I feel proud and colossal
A motherfucking eighth world wonder

Frantic sad hands
Tug me into the ravine
Of tanning lotion and muscle magazines
(Some touch is better than no touch)
I’m the knick-knack
Paddle smack in so many dreams
But here, just a buffer of deniability
(Some touch is better than no touch)
And I am boundless, voluminous
And oh
Yes
Yes
Yes I do want

True love
Good times
True love
Good times
Who am I to deny
A little sunshine
They say he’s a genius
Not sure if I see it
But none of us lasts very long
So it wouldn’t occur to me not to have fun
I’m the smile that shouldn’t have
But we all have one
We all have one

“Vulgar to me”
01:27

The poison’s in all of their minds
They’ll hold it against me every time
My anger grows and grows
Till I can foam from all the holes
Shiseido Babylon Jezebel rabies
I’ve smothered myself
You’ve smothered me
So now in the fridge with the cocktail olives
And the aerosol cheese
I’ve been manifesting what I need
Said now in the fridge with the cocktail olives
And the freshly ground beef
I’ve been manifesting what I need

Step down

The trope would be my daddy did me wrong
But maybe I’ve been like this all along
His dark drawl reaches deep inside of me
To the bottom of the garden where ambitions seed
And swell awfully large
For a small girl like me
I have very strong opinions of what I deserve
Top from the bottom, I always say
But greed can make anyone miscalculate
The moment I take off my heels
It’s too late
