With the great Yul Brynner
I would love to have dinner
And feast on a dove
That fell from above
With cranb'rries and rice
'T would really be nice
If life seems jolly rotten
there's something you've forgotten
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

'T would be really nice
If I could bathe in your light again,
I've only been in darkness since you went away.
Soft, silky cocoons of you
Forever woven in my memory.

Forever woven in my memory,
will be the day when we meet,
Oh, Kitten, that shall be sweet.
I'll kiss you and hug you,
and you'll make me blush,
I'll spank you
and hug you some more.
I'll probably cry
when we say goodbye,
but know that it ain't forever;
once back home,
I shall not dither,
for the facts I learned,
I shall put to good use,
I'll apply for visas,
apply for jobs,
I'll come back
and be with you,
forever, my love.

forever, my love
is an awfull long deal
but it's not long enough
for the love that I feel
it could fill up the universe
light up the sky
so the folks would look up there
and wonder just why
our sun seemed much brighter
and why even the moon
would light up like a lantern
even when it is noon
I would tell them what caused
all this light from above
it is just the reflection
of my burning hot love
If life seems jolly rotten
there's something you've forgotten
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

Of my hot burning love
I shall feed the fires.
I'll tell you of my desires
As I nibble on your ear lobe.

As I nibble on your ear lobe,
I shall no longer be hungry,
though it is a mere snack,
it is enough to tide me over.
Perhaps I'll have a nice thigh next,
or maybe what lays between them both.
Choices: thigh or that thing that makes you high?
I know what I want...

I know I'm no debutant...
Yet I don't know my way
In this web of emotions
Still don't know what to say
Don't know why I am hurting
everybody I know
Wish that someone would tell me
Should I stay? Should I go?
I know I'm no debutant...
Yet these questions remain
Guess I'll have to face living
And endure all the pain

And endure all the pain
I have caused you,
I did not mean to make you all suffer endlessly.
Nor when I left you for her,
I thought so selfishly.
These are the crosses I must bear.

I'm tipsy

as he reached for his wine
but the music is still playing
so I feel really fine
I'll enjoy every note
every chord that they play
so as long as they're playing
I will not go away

I will not go away.
I will stand my ground.
You can try and make me run,
But I am tired of always letting fear win.
I will not run away.
I will stand proud.
Everything you use to do to me,
It will all come back on you.
I give. I'll make a better signature when I finally categorized those billion thoughts.

It will all come back on you,
The things that you used to do.
Making her a pawn in the game that you play,
It's a losing game that's all in vain.
Like you breaking every promise to me,
I would never take you back.
For I know better than that,
It's a hard lesson that I had to learn and
I hope your actions are paid back tenfold.

I hope your actions are paid back tenfold
Thoughts of you leaves me bored and cold
You promised everything so earnestly
But came up short on delivery
What you are is a sham; a fake
And I have had about as much as I can take
As far as I'm concerned you can go to hell
You see, I've changed, can't you tell?
Where once I was your puppet on a string
Too afraid to do anything
Without your approval or permission
I'm no longer in that position
I'm free of you and your influence
And, believe me, it's no coincidence
That this all came about very recently
Because of the way you treated me
Your hold over me began to crack
When I decided it was time to fight back
And give to you some of what you gave me:
Heartache, grief, and misery.
Look at you now, not quite so cocksure
And arrogant like you were before
You're broken now, a beaten man
It's my intention to do all I can
To make your life a misery
For the awful way you treated me
Now that I have you on the rack
You're gonna learn this bitch bites back!

You're gonna learn a bitch bites back.
Even when I begin to slack.
I watch and see you work.
Which I start to smirk.
You think you got me in a corner.
But you are just a little performer
Keep dancing around and acting like a clown.
Because all you are doing is making other people frown.
Which isn't very nice.
It shows that you are just a mouse.

It shows that you are just a mouse,
Living in your house,
With nothing to do all day but play.
I am the cat that eats the mouse
So you better be on your way.
These fangs and claws will get you,
They'll sink into your flesh.
Watch out mouse,
I'm coming for you and I'm aiming for your head.

I'm coming for you, and I'm aiming for your head,
Your eyes are closed, your mouth open wide,
Do you tremble in fear, or anticipate a surprise?
Quietly I come, no sound do you hear,
a movement of air, so close, yes I'm near,
A rustling, no more,
A faint odour of spice,
Then in your mouth it goes,
Oh isn't that nice!

A look of surprise,
forgotten the dread,
And you swallow it down,
A taste of holiday cheer.

A taste of holiday cheer.
Personally my favorite is beer.

Cause eggnog mixed with rum.
Turns my nose and cheeks numb.

But hey, it is that time of the year.
To share with friends and family dear.

I'm just a beer-giving deer
With his gut filled with beer
That I happened to drink
Due to holiday cheer
Now my bladder will split
If I do not get rid
all the alcohol's gone
and the rest smells like shit
If life seems jolly rotten
there's something you've forgotten
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing

And the rest smells like shit
Since he came back in
He is covered in it
But I thought he went to the gym

Though no gyms have animals
That I know of here
So why is he so stinky in overalls
Covered in poo from a deer?

Silly silly little man
you can't hide evidence
So this is what I understand

You're just full of ignorance
his buddy said
Why can't you see
what goes on in her head
You are in love with her
that clearly shows
Why don't you do something
so that she knows
The whole world can see
how she feels about you
That she desp'rately loves you
why don't you see too
So open your eyes
and just give her that kiss
Open up and enjoy
the best feeling there is

The best feeling there is
Happens to come so rare
Its from that someone
Who shows they care

When he takes the time
To reach out his hands
To show his undying love
The loyalty of this man

The feelings that came
When you saw his eyes
Silently pleading
Hiding the tears that dried

Feelings so strong
They shake your core
Knocking you breathless
Leaving your chest sore

And soon you be dead.
Because you life is like a thread.
So thin and weak.
Because you are just the freak.
When you say lets us die.
You are carrying that piece of pie.
With the final words.
You fluttered like a bird.
