Adam and Eve (live)

Lyrics

tonight you stooped to my level
 i am your mangy little whore
 now you're trying to find your underwear
 and then your socks and then the door
 and you're trying to find a reason
 why you have to leave
 but i know it's 'cuz you think you're adam
 and you think i'm eve
 you rhapsodize about beauty
 and my eyes glaze
 everything i love is ugly
 i mean really, you would be amazed
 just do me a favor
 it's the least that you can do
 just don't treat me like i am
 something that happened to you
 i am truly sorry about all this
 you put a tiny pin prick
 in my big red balloon
 and as i slowly start to exhale
 that's when you leave the room
 i did not design this game
 i did not name the stakes
 i just happen to like apples
 and i am not afraid of snakes
 i am truly sorry about all this
 i envy you your ignorance
 i hear that it's bliss
 so i let go the ratio
 of things said to thing heard
 as i leave you to your garden
 and the beauty you preferred
 and i wonder what of this
 will have meaning for you
 when you've left it all behind
 i guess i'll even wonder
 if you meant it
 at the time
