SKYCLAD
"Little Miss Take"
(Martin Walkyier)

Thought I'd got it right, for once I'd sought and found perfection
When you said "I love you" you addressed your own reflection
I'd prayed up to the heavens for a goddess of desire
The best they had on offer was one devil of a liar
You can't be accused of procrastination
One brief separation, the dream went stale
You sever all ties with a swift laceration
Leave so many loose ends, thereby hangs my tale

Were you scared that the truth could have made you fatter?
The Queen of Hearts, you dealt me a pack of lies
Laughed in my face like it didn't matter
That you'd crossed my heart and I hoped to die

Licked my wounds, hugged my chains believing you premenstrual
Unaware love could be blind to torture, cruel and mental
With regret I must confess I realised too late
You redefine endearment as the tender side of hate
I'm already broken so don't kick me better
What colour's the sky in your world, is it green?
It seems I'm not even worth one paltry letter
Cast off like a tampon you stamp on my dream

Were you scared that the truth could have made you fatter?
The Queen of Hearts, you dealt me a pack of lies
Laughed in my face like it didn't matter
That you'd crossed my heart and I hoped to die

Could it possibly be that in your dictionary
"Love" and "lies" are defined both the same?
I know how you can catch your ideal man
Join a singles' club for the insane

The prize for my stupidity, a noose about my neck
Next time that she says "good day" make sure you go and check
Mislay your smile, this dacryphile is turned on by sighs
When she has her eye on you, good fortune and time flies
You can't be accused of procrastination
One brief separation, the dream went stale
You sever all ties with a swift laceration
Leave so many loose ends, thereby hangs my tale

Were you scared that the truth could have made you fatter?
The Queen of Hearts, you dealt me a pack of lies
Laughed in my face like it didn't matter
That you'd crossed my heart and I hoped to die
Both sickened to learn and yet glad to discover
That Venus once held me with (ch)arms so fake
I'd have once sold my soul for this faithless lover
Now I couldn't give a damn for my little Miss Take
