I dont bathe in the flesh like the American way But I've savored the breath of American Ladies Another bee on the petals of a flower choked in the weeds A mother lied when she said she knows of real beauty If you swallow the bait With a bottle of wine You can live like a queen In the open wound of a pretty smile I ate for hours and hours and hours and I'm still hungry I filled the body with gasoline and let you ignite me I only wish I had a match for every baby girl on earth Save them from drowning in their mothers milk after birth If you swallow the bait With a bottle of wine You can live like a queen In the open wound of a pretty smile You don't sleep in your skin because it makes you fill cheap So you hang it next to your bed and hope your bones will still keep
