Ladies

Once I held my hand inside a strangers pocket
Once I held my hand tight round a strangers rocket.
Once I kept a secret,
once I told it well.
Once I kept myself away from you
and your smell.
Once I stalked a stranger
just to see what he would do.
Once I placed my hands over my eyes
to clear the view.
Once I tasted first, once I ate it raw
Once I kept myself away from you and your …
Ladies just don’t do things like that!
Yeah, I know you like the smell,
mademoiselle.
Yeah I know you need the taste,
but darling, it’s such a waste.
I know you do, I know-o-ho
you want to.
Yeah, I knew it, still I had to do it.
It was lovely the first,
better the second, but third
oh the third.
Once I threw a stone so far
I couldn’t see it land.
Once I held a bottle filled
with colored sand.
Once I built a castle,
once I burnt it down.
Once I kept myself away from you
and your town.
Ladies just don’t do things like that!
Yeah, I know you like the smell,
mademoiselle.
Yeah I know you need the taste,
but darling, it’s such a waste.
I know you do, I know-o-ho
you want to.
