Oh headless men
the music of friends
sharking their way through the sheets
An ocean of boys
neckties for toys
never more dead than discreet.
Touching his face
there was a trace
that he was in love.
They do what they want to
they do what they want to
They scream.
Heavens above.
”Never” was the name of the passionate one
”Never” was the name of the passionate one
One
Secretary who to marry?
Wife is at home or she’s not.
The finest of trysts will never be missed
have two lives if that’s what you want.
The cream of the past is taken out trash.
I was in love
So take if you’ll have it
and bring out the future in tongues.
”Never” was the name of the passive-est one.
”Never” was the name of the passive-est one.
