The Art of Confusion

3x the Charm

Little girl, let's play a game,

Alexander is his name,

You're too naive to understand

The winning cards there in your hand,

Experience will teach you how,

And then you'll know six years from now.

Little girl, let's skip two years,

And open up your eyes and ears,

That chubby guy that goes by Joe

Will soon become a source of woe,

Yet flirting tricks you will refine,

You'll learn to twist another's mind.

Little girl, let's find a dream

And hold on now that you're sixteen;

This Quinton boy a promise made,

And stole you from the black parade,

But since you're scared you lie to him,

And now the future seems so dim.

Going once

Going twice

3x the charm

Little girl, let's close our eyes

And bask in all the lust tonight,

It isn't real so it can't hurt,

All you are's an online flirt,

Trying to forget the one,

Erasing him with all this 'fun.'

Little girl, let's kill your crush,

All it causes is a fuss,

Captain Justin is a boy

Who'll use you as his online toy,

It'll hurt but you don't care,

As long as your friend Josh is there.

Little girl, let's make a wish,

That Quinton saves you from all this,

He'll help you burn the mess of lies,

He'll help you cease the silent cries,

Your flirting days are said and done,

For now you know you've found the one.

Going once

Going twice

3x the charm

Little girl, let's keep away

From all those guys who'll never stay,

You talk to them as only friends,

But that's not how the story ends;

Your charm is now a part of you,

They'll fall no matter what you do.

Little girl, let's trust someone,

Let's tell him of the Silvertongue,

After all, he's fifty-eight,

Surely age will set him straight!

But no, exactly like the rest

What was a friend is now a pest.

Little girl, what will you do

If daddy picks a guy for you?

It's not like you can just pretend,

He'll think of you more than a friend,

And since you're just too fucking nice,

You'll marry him and pay the price.

Going once

Going twice
