Glass Dolls
Watch out
You’re kissing glass dolls
Stop before the day breaks
Stop before the night falls
You said it was a pity here
You said it was a pity there
It’s pity I don’t suck my thumb
It’s pity I wear underwear
Since you don’t like me as I am
I’m sending myself frame by frame:
You’re schoolgirl, diva, woman, elf
You keep the pictures – I’ll keep myself.
Man, I don’t wanna be your girl anymore
Hell, I don’t even wanna be anymore.

Mirror Instead

Mirror instead
Eddie the Romeo
And Catherine the saint
Go to the rodeo
Just to get the scent
Here’s a real cowgirl
Think we should say hi?
I love the way she lets herself go wild
They think highly of your hair
Beware
They’d rather read a piece about you
Then shake your hand.
Ed in the radio
Chewing on blue sage
The new one from Kitty Yo
Is chewing on his rage
“Cathy listen up
This is so much fun:
‘I love you baby
You’re my number one’”
In the morning in an oval bed
Ed sees a mirror Catherine sees Ed
In an oval bed
In the morning Caterine’s slyly sad
She wish she you were a mirror
Wish she were a mirror
Instead.

No Mercy For Foxy

No mercy for Foxy
She wakes up in a house
and doesn’t know where she’s been
Her knickers are white
and her mind is still clean
She must be seventeen
She could be sixteen
A knock on the door
disturbing his snore
a key through the crack
the woman in black
She could be real fine
But now she’s bloody valentine
I’m gonna kill you
Is all she says
I’m gonna kill you
But she’s not talking to her
I’m gonna kill you
There must be some kind of mistake
Angel wants to go
But she motions her – no ,
I want you to stay
And see how he’ll pay
You look like a nice kid,
But as far as this pig here
You look like a nice kid
But no mercy for foxy.
I’m gonna kill you
Is all she says
I’m gonna kill you
But she’s not talking to her
Gonna kill you
No pain and no painful regrets
The fox who’s a pig
The pig who’s a fox
The message finally penetrates his post-coital slumbers
A black skirt and black purse and blizzards and thunders
Before it all turns black
I’m gonna kill you
Is all she says
I’m gonna kill you
And she looks like she can do it
Gonna kill you
No pain and no painful regrets
I’m gonna kill you – you hear me?
I’m gonna kill you ¬– you see this?
Gonna kill you ¬– look me once in the face
Before I kill you
Angel doesn’t shudder as she puts on her stockings and her dress
She was born in the eighties and she’s seen it all on tv
She understands
On the bus to the suburbs she rubs off the blood
From her forehead
And her cheek
And she thinks:
There’s a lot of
This man’s body
On my body
And now he is nobody.

Yes
Seeing you
after a long time
I recognize
The same death in your eyes
And I fear
Your presence being near
Even if it’s me you’re looking at now
I know how you drowned me in your coldness
Once before
And how you left me dried and and pale
To an encore
Of a love song
And after every no and after every blow
I love you
And there is danger here whenever you appear
I love you
All the words I said to others count as dead
I love you
So please don’t come again to my show.
