Whisper sweet nothings in my ear
Tell me all the things
You think I want to hear
Touch my heart and I will be yours
Like the others, you think I'm a w—
I'm shining above all the rest
Beneath the stars
In my polka dotted dress
All the others pale in compare
But cheat on me don't you dare
Swing me softly in the night
Promise me we will be
Loving foreverly
Kneel down and offer the stone
Lie that I'll never be alone
Scream sweet nothings in my face
Give me venom
Tell me that I'm a disgrace
Find a woman on the side
While my inheritance I hide
Punch me tenderly in the eye
I can tell that
You want me to die
Maybe it's the lurking hit man
Or my own damn intuition.
(Roughly to the tune of Dream a Little Dream of Me)
