Bite Me
Honey you done used me up
Chewed me up
And carelessly spit me out
Now several years passed
And I see you again
You all smiles
You offer me the chance
(Again)
To help you out
“Come on
Don’t you wanna be my friend?”
I say,
“Nope”
Honey you done used me up
Chewed me up
And carelessly spit me out
I say,
“Thanks for the lesson
I now pay attention
And no longer work for momentary smiles
And long-lasting sneers
Honey you done used me up
Chewed me up
And carelessly spit me out
So I say, Nope
I don’t care what you want”
And I smile back
But you’re not upset
(At least you don’t show it)
Your eyes glaze over a second
And you’re instantly off
Looking for another ‘friend to help you out’
And I wonder
Do you ever get the chance
To brush your teeth
Between victims?
