Taking It To the Stree

TAKING IT TO THE HEAT I recommended that she leave before the discord Now she’s boarding the same ship I’m about to board The water and it’s waves may be rough But being that lady’s lover is way too tough The woman doesn’t understand I’m setting her free She should scramble through the brambles to flee from me Arid is the desert that used to be my heart But she came along so the ship could set another chart I can’t scream loud enough when taking it to the street People stare but no longer care because they can’t stand the heat And when the lady heats up she almost bursts into flames She’s an oven and singed many men, or so the lady claims I tried ranting, raving, running, regretting and just letting go It’s torrid living with the lady, and that she’s got to know Her beauty is faint when you remove the paint from her lips and the rouge from her cheek And now, because she came a long, the ship has a rapid leak © 2011.…Phreepoetree ~free cee!~
