Lady Shark

Lady shark swims on the bottom of the seas
Wreathed in her teeth are the tatters of her dreams
And in her eyes there’s never a tear
Because all she tastes is your cold-hearted fear

Catch her by her silver tail
Ride’s like a roll in chain mail
But if you try to pull her fin
Beware darling, of her grin

She likes
To bite
She likes
To bite
She likes
To bite
Lord knows
She likes
To bite

Lady shark swims away
Dead in the flesh cold light of day
Nothing but the mettle of the kiss she bestows
Tastes of your blood and yesterday’s clothes

Catch her by her silver tail
Ride’s like a roll in chain mail
But if you try to pull her fin
Beware darling, of her grin

She likes
To bite
She likes

Lord knows

Lady shark

Hunt her down
Trap her in your nets
Watch her drown
Ladies place your bets
Gape open wide
To the wild night air
Veins pumping ice
Red adrenalin glare
Lady Shark is gasping
But she still don’t care

She likes
To bite
She likes
To bite
She likes
To bite
Lord knows
She likes
To bite

Lady shark lying on the pier
They’d sliced her open by the end of the year
An empty heart and a gut-full of bile
But she kept on grinning her dead head smile

Catch her by her silver tail
Ride’s like a roll in chain mail
But if you try to pull her fin
Beware darling, of her grin

She likes
To bite
She likes
To bite
She likes
To bite
Lord knows
She likes
