Amphetamine Annie-Dog

Has her leash and a face

Her velvet spleen, her shackle spine

Her diamond curse, it comes with mine

A vessel she, for violent I

Confession arms awake

Mine, mine, you were always mine

Possessed by my taste

And below the angel dog

Combs her hair and sings her psalms

The bombs go off, she doesn't notice

It all goes wrong, she sets things tragic

She is Venus, she is Mars

She's electric, and the struggle of

Upon my face we leave no trace

But in her stomach mercury aged

She holds the blood, she carves the knives

She digs the wives in our babies

Amphetamine Annie-Dog

Pulls her trash and her stories

From place to place, and bed to bed

Gives of herself and the magnet head

Another floor, another ceiling

Counting stairs with double meanings

Is it wrong to swallow whole?

To disappear in her?

To give her the priceless peace

Of giving up control?

We tumble out into the streets

And Annie-Dog, she drags her leash

Pretty face, ugly mouth

Bitter bred and so released

And by the no, and by the yes

Annie goes if you couldn't guess

A simple man, a sycophant

Her elephant with the laughing call

She wants clean sheets, and fresh flowers

And dental shots, and the Hong Kong glue

Amphetamine Annie-Dog

Has her leash and a face
