The Rape

He sees me
End of love
After me
End of love
Would it matter if I jumped a mile
Worried him about it
Gave myself the certainty of sorrow
In the alley, in the shelter
On the run, helter-skelter
In the street, in the park
In the open, after dark
I'll have you, a lover
Black or blue, I'll smile now
You can follow me, step aside with me
You ought to walk this side and give me
Some fascinating ride
In the alley, in the shelter
On the run, helter-skelter
In the street, in the park
In the open, after dark
In the street, in the park
In the open, after dark
First you said, you said, Don't do it
First you send us a cloud
But I remember who the loser is
And you remember the cloud
I'll give you something to remember me
A little colder than a frown
I'll hold you for a breach of promise, a
Little mercy for a crown
Why did you come to me
When you must bring the light tristesse
And the blues so smooth
And then you do it again
Certainly she suffered
Certainly I love her
Would you love me
Would you drop your vow
Please forgive me, babe, but say,
Give me the benefit of the doubt
In the alley, in the shelter
On the run, helter-skelter
In the street, in the park
In the open, after dark
