This Flood

It must have rained two weeks last summer; when the ice cream
man cancelled it was such a f--king bummer. We were floating
down the street lying naked in a raft; I was honing &
a-practising my love-making craft; I was honing it & I held ya

When the weather man said he couldn't grant us a reprieve, you
were getting on my nerves & I wanted you to leave. Well you
test me every day, you're like a bug up my nose. I swear I'm
going to leave ya, but you keep me on my toes, on my toes. Let
me hold you

Well you're the one for mw, I can't leave ya; you nasty little bitch,
I ain't ever gonna free ya. With the lipstick & the passion &
the power & the blood, I'm going to keep you as my hostage
in this never-ending flood, in this flood

If it rings & it's your mother, then I'll take your cuffs off.
When you wiggle from the pain, I like the way you twist your
spine. It's special moments like these, that let me know that
you're mine, I know you're mine. Let me hold ya

Well you're the one for me, I can't leave ya; you nasty little bitch,
I ain't ever gonna free ya. With the lipstick & the passion &
the power & the blood, I'm going to keep you as my hostage
in this never-ending flood, in this flood

My love is like a fire, I guess you call it two-fisted. Some people
call it sick, they don't understand I'm twisted. Don't let the
bruises scare your friends, we can cover them with makeup.
You know I'll always love ya, you'll always be my buttercup,
you'll be my buttercup. Let me hold ya

Well you're the one for me, I can't leave ya; you nasty little bitch,
I ain't ever gonna free ya. With the lipstick & the passion &
the power & the blood, I'm going to keep you as my hostage
in this never-ending flood, in this flood
