that my glad rags come out for a 'do',
more funerals now, each year more friends have gone,

Laced by unfiltered poison with no filtered antidote,
While punching bag pulses...

...Behind barbed wires,
High fences, guard dogs and heavy gates,
Lies my mansion.
A castle and a fortress
To keep out unwanted guests
And prying eyes.
I have the best of everything:
Cars, clothes...
