Morticia

Morticia mia!
Morticia! morticia!
The name alone is gold
It speaks of death and labored breath
Not fears of growing old!
If i could stop the clock right now to make a simple wish
The only wish that i would wish is tish, tish, tish...
The wind that makes a window creak
The mist inside the word mystique
Morticia
The fluttering wings of bats in flight
Those creepy crawly things at night
Morticia
The moment she is focused on you makes you feel alive
And after she is through you hope you only just survive
Not unlike being stung by every bee inside the hive
Morticia
The scream she saves for only you
The misery she puts you through
Morticia (morticia)
The chill she brings to every room
The lethal stench of french perfume
Morticia (morticia)
She meets your gaze and promises
To send you to the sky
When all the while behind that smile she's wondering how you'll die
That's why it's so delicious to be governated by
Morticia
Not today! that's what i heard her say
What's happening to my wife?
(what's happening to your wife?)
Not today! that's really not okay
She must be feeling blue
I don't know what to do
Except perhaps it's true
I must!
I can't!
I will!
You think?
I shall!
I'll end my life!
......
Morticia! nooo!
......
Morticia (morticia)
She's every dream and every nightmare permanently bound
So when i'm dead asleep that's when i feel it most profound
But tell me you'll be round before i'm 6 feet underground
Morticia, morticia
The hours playing hide and seek
That unexpected greek technique
Morticia (morticia)
A blackened heart
A darker soul
Imprisonment with no parole
(mooooorticiaaaaaaa!)
Nice......
If i love you and you love me
Then lose this fresh facade
My ingenue i'll help you to avoid the firing squad
And life will be for us you'll see interminably odd
(morticia)
There's not a moment i could wish
(morticia)
That would exclude my darling tish
(morticia)
Morticiaaaaaaaa......
