"Miss Mayhem" lyrics - RICK SPRINGFIELD

RICK SPRINGFIELD
"Miss Mayhem"

That girl has a gift
Like a social disease
If you catch my drift
She brought me to my knees
And like a wrecking hammer
She broke me down til I said please
Oh yeah
Was it her plan of attack?
While she was raking my back
She left me hanging with my heart in the breeze
Say a prayer for me
Winter is here in the month of July
It's my misguided notion
As silent as a scream
There were no warning signs in her eyes
And I'm so pleased to meet you Miss Mayhem

I'm sleeping with a time bomb
She's counting it down
I'm walking with a napalm
In an organdy gown
Into my private slammer
She locked me down and kept the key
Oh yeah
She is a woman in black
She is my panic attack
Came with a no money back guarantee
Say a prayer for me
Winter is here in the summer tonight
She's freezing my emotion
As deadly as a scream
Swear I don't see any fear in her eyes
Thanks for introducing to Miss Mayhem

Trying to run while I'm shaking the dust off
Crying to you when I'm scraping the rust off
Lying to you while breaking the trust off
Won't you please just say a prayer for me?
Winter is here in the month of July
It's my misguided notion
As silent as a scream
There were no warning signs in her eyes
And I'm so pleased to meet you
Say a prayer for me
Winter is here in the summer tonight
She's freezing my emotion
As deadly as a scream
Swear I don't see any fear in her eyes
Thanks for introducing to Miss Mayhem
