Your Favorite Song - Kryptonite
You are my fatal weakness,
my dark covered light
Got those piercing, dark-green emerald eyes,
and an alien heart shaped like kryptonite
And I hear the dirge words from my favorite song playing:
The beautiful ones always make you cry
You are my decadently Delilah,
my cup of steamy, evening nightshade
Though I be your lover Superman
with a Samson tan,
you cut my strength away with a dark-green razor blade
And I cry
like a dove,
Baby, baby why
As I can't turn away from the gaze
of your killer kryptonite eyes
While I hear the dirge drone of my favorite song constantly saying:
The beautiful ones always make you cry
And I'm certain too,
as I wipe the dark-green tears from your eyes,
that your kryptonite lips
will give me a sorrowful, sad kiss when I die
Now at peace, I close my eyes,
holding your kryptonite heart close to mine
And your radiant lips are aglow,
flaming fluorescent, bright light-green lime
As echoes of these dirge words from my favorite song starts fading:
The beautiful ones, they hurt you every time
