lyrics

Wandering in the sun too long,
you think you’ve become a daughter
I’m a shepherdess with the sweetest face
my flaccid lambs for the slaughter

With my face in your thighs
I’m Sada Abe and I’ve got a surprise
You’re my star arboreal,
In my garden memorial,
a candle for my friend,
Let's light a vigil before on the mend

Have you no sense to try?
Yes, you wanted it, but wanted it why?
Ibuprofen can help
sing your hymen to health

And why shouldn’t you blush?
The doc thinks you’re a loony who rushed.
The candles don’t cry, they love in the ice, their sisterhood blood,
They’re the butterflies who cut their cocoons open by themselves

It’s not so bad, now you’re looking back
You’re not just a gay boy, you’re a fag with a lack
And here in my bag, I treasure it most
A replica model of my very first host
