Almost does not count at all
It only makes it seem crazier than it is
Granting some higher-up sorcerer the life of your first born child
Selling your souls with contracts signed in your own blood
Wallowing in the mud like that is certainly not for me
I am no where close to being a pig
All I want to do is submerge myself in true love and prosperity
I can\'t even get a damned gig
I busted my ass for my last employer
I gave them my all and apparently, they still expected more
Just when all the boys from behind the line finally stopped ignoring me, the old crustaceans started to swarm
They realized one day that I am hotter than fire when they were already irked that I was getting warm
A savage beast
A siren
A nymphomaniac
My drab work uniform was so tired and worn that it started peeling back away from my flesh, exposing me
Feeling beautiful in my own skin again
Everything was all too smooth, so easy
I must of been there to thwart their plans
I was too much for them to ingest
Someone must have seen me somewhere after hours
Strutting my shit in full stride
Hips swaying to and fro
Exposing raw my shimmering hide
Somebody must have lied to them when they were explaining how it is that it should be
Somebody must have seen a bit more of me than their reality would permit them to see
But, none of that pertains to me and if it did, I would never accept it
I would gnaw it off of me with my own teeth
Coyote ugly
Iron fluid soaking into my gums
A primitive creature you could say is me
A Neanderthal, Bigfoot bitch
Clawing my way through the bushes
Taking the living down
Dazzling the crowd with a fabulous costume
A primitive, colorful clown
Making my way through a man-made labyrinth
Expecting an anvil to drop upon my head at any given moment in time
Primitive, the way that they stalk my movement
How they forever attempt to catch me up in the context of all of their crimes
It\'s like I am always hunted
Like my guard must always be on point and intact
I refuse to be their muse, their puppet
I will never make nor sign a pact
