foreplay

I sip the tea
you guzzle beer
words fall in a pattern
shaped just like a deer

so I say,
"Yip, yip, yip -- s'way it always goes Joe."

"Name ain't Joe," you say, "You say that all the time,
s'crime I think that you don't know
you just don't know anything
my name
I'm tellin' ya

my name ain't Joe."

I kiss the cup
you break the glass
laughs fall into music
sounds like Sunday Mass

so I say,
"Alleilu, Alleilu, Alleluia -- s'way it goes, don't ya know Joe?"

"Name ain't Joe," you say, "you always say that all the time,
s'crime don't ya know, don't you know anything?
my name
I'm tellin' ya

my name ain't Joe."


I grab another
you roll your eyes
silence grows until
Until I'm starin' at your thighs

so I say,
"rawr, rawr, baby rawr -- s'way it goes, s'way goes...let's go baby let's go"

"Name ain't Joe," you say, "you always say that all the time,
s'crime don't ya know, if you want me at all
my name
I'm tellin' ya

my name ain't Joe."
