Sex Blues

Sex is a weapon
Sex is a knife
Sex is power
Sex is strife
Sex is heaven and hell
That’s life
On the night I met her
She was like a firestorm
Burning down the factories
Just trying to keep warm
So busy dying
Trying to be born
I was the ice age
Didn’t know what’s in me
She was a lighthouse
On the sea of memory
Then came the shipwreck
And what was to be
Sex is a weapon
Sex is a knife
Sex is power
Sex is strife
Sex is heaven and hell
That’s life
She lit a candle
And she looked down in my eyes
I saw a desert
And I was surprised
Lost and thirsty
And hypnotized
She was a goddess
Some men could idolize
But I was suspicious
Of all of her lies
Of her motives and mercy
I wouldn’t buy it
Sex is fire
More than desire
Sex is light
It’s all right
It can get you through
A helluva night
Sex is a weapon
Sex is a knife
Sex is power
Sex is strife
Sex is heaven and hell
That’s life
