Sex And Dying In High Society
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
you started out that way
you'd do anything to stay
and keep your money boys
made of silver and gold
keep your pekinese,
turkish cigarettes
and your lighter that looks like a gun
so you married your daddy with a different name
sex and dying in high society(x4)
that pretty man of yours
hiding inside the director's clothes
the one who calls you dear
after banging away at you in the night
that one's just got to go
every time you look at him
you could almost fall asleep
and there's a masturbating getting underneath the bed
sex and dying in high society (x4)
and now you tell the maid
to burn you on your virgin back
with a curling iron
hotter than hot
you say it's good enough (x3)
you say your pain is better than any kind of love
sex and dying in high society (x8)
