Loretta and the Insect World
I just said goodbye to my lover, Loretta
For the last time
No more would she lie
Nor would I upset her
And we'd wish the same to no one
There was liquor if needed
Five miles down a dangerous road
Got me plenty of nothing right here
If I need to explode
Watch with me!
Turning to watch my child sleep
Feels good to stand beside her dreams
My time was distracted
With a love, or so 'Retta had seemed
And the howling wind
Becomes my good friend again
Instead of something we'd hide against
And it feels good to feel our love in the past tense
It was then when love turned from wonder and lust to just sin
To just sin
It was then when love turned from wonder and lust to just sin
And the whole insect world wanted in
There are slave ants, stink bugs
And scorpions with those tails, and all kinds of spiders
And the sheen round sheet of dragonfly sails
It was then when love turned from wonder and lust to just sin
To just sin
It was then when love turned from wonder and lust to just sin
And the whole insect world wanted in
For the last time
No more would she lie
Nor would I upset her
And we'd wish the same to no one
There was liquor if needed
Five miles down a dangerous road
Got me plenty of nothing right here
If I need to explode
Watch with me!
Turning to watch my child sleep
Feels good to stand beside her dreams
My time was distracted
With a love, or so 'Retta had seemed
And the howling wind
Becomes my good friend again
Instead of something we'd hide against
And it feels good to feel our love in the past tense
It was then when love turned from wonder and lust to just sin
To just sin
It was then when love turned from wonder and lust to just sin
And the whole insect world wanted in
There are slave ants, stink bugs
And scorpions with those tails, and all kinds of spiders
And the sheen round sheet of dragonfly sails
It was then when love turned from wonder and lust to just sin
To just sin
It was then when love turned from wonder and lust to just sin
And the whole insect world wanted in
