Love and Lust

You’re asking why I’m not in love, dear friend But how a man like me for love would care? If all I’m seeking from the beginning to the end Is only the sexy body and the blond hair? I don’t believe in love, I think it’s a lie That we invented to mask our desire But as I know that I eventually shall die I try as much as I can to quench my fire Why should I bond myself to just one lover As if I choose to eat everyday from the same cake? Instead, I try to taste as many of flavor And from every different kind a piece take I don’t need love, lust overwhelms my soul Love is an appearance, but lust is the real goal
