lyrics

She broke her water on her Estee Lauder
Had her crocodile tears waitin in the corner
An I was easy like a lamb on the way to the slaughter
Usually the last to know when its over

And I wouldn't wanna rob you of your withdrawal
Far be it from me to break your fall
On the sword, of beautiful

Pimp havin problems with the snow today
Yeah he warmin up MacDonalds he the Maitre D
Sizin me up from under chinchilla
Say why the long face, come her killa
You look pretty smart from what I can see
I hate business but that's just me
Counterintuitive to charge a fee
Far as I'm concerned beauty's always free
Cuz if I had your bedside manner, I'd be the fire
I'd be the hook, and the ladder
And I wouldn't have time for chitta-chatta
If I could be...with Lisa.

And i wouldn't wanna rob you of your withdrawal
Far be it from me to break your fall
On the sword, of beautiful

I was captured and removed by the rapture
And the red fox who found me hiding
In the chicken coop
He said I'm gonna show you how we
Party in the underground
And then he took me to his foxhole
There was: Livestock lyin' around , some on top,
some below, everywhere they was, half exposed
And there was diamond studded wrist watches and band was playing from China, playing techno
And this foxy fox in a silk robe started fillin my glass from a punch bowl sayin' lemme know
When you're ready to roll...

But I wouldn't wanna take this game too far
Pit beautiful against your animal
Might not be no more aces in your eightball

Might be no more aces. Oh no.
