Kiss of Death

A woman comes staggering in
Have words with her you’ll never win
You happen to be sleeping sound
This girl she is very wound
The kiss of death she gave to me
Death among us I do see
I wish that it was just a dream
I would rather be hit in the head with a beam
Everyone thinks it’s a game
That I got a kiss from this dame
But the last laugh will be on me
My wrath they will see
The kiss of death spells the end 
Not one person that will defend
Moving on is what I’ll do
At least she didn't give me two
