THE PERFECT CRIME




Here's my story, sad but true
About a girl that I once knew
Short and brave and battle-grown
Free as where the wind has blown
You were a thing I can't say

Wore the apron in your house
Screamed when I saw a mouse
Handy with a monkey wrench
Just about the perfect wench
There was no game we couldn't play

Oh Darling
You know it ended all too soon
And now I'm starving
You moved on to the next dumb schmuck
While I'm still calling
You stole my heart
It was the perfect crime

Here's your warning, don't be slow
Run away from all the ho's
Tell you what you wanna hear
You will pay for it in tears
It's my conundrum all day

Was I lucky?
Was I damned?
Left my wife for a garbage can
I was blind, I couldn't see
Love had made a fool of me
And then I watched it all fade away

An earthquake, you pulled me under
Wonder how you made my milk shake
No one could ever steal your thunder
Some clam bake
I just got barbecued by the
Best damned chef around
But look who's laughing...
Look who's laughing now....

She said don't cry
We all goodbye
Everywhere we go, go, go
Oh she told me so

~Barely legal guitar

Now I'm on my own again
Hope I don't get fooled again
Stay away, I'm not the guy
'Cause once bitten then twice shy
Dreams now I keep for when I sleep
And count a hundred sheep

I went there
I swear I must have been asleep
'Cause once I got there
I knew that I had swam in deep
Into her nightmare
She made me think that I had found
The perfect fit
But she was full of
She was full of
She was full of it
