(The Mexican hustler: "Hey Meester!...Hey Blondie Boy!")
The night has windows that cannot sleep I don't like the monsters that you keep Don't play "Baby Mary" 'cause I am not a kid Don't you go and push me like your hammer did,
I am blue as you pull off your skin I can read in flesh everywhere you've been That's why we bother to know each other so well That's why I bother to live in hell with you
This is love, it's dangerous There's whole lots of things in my head This love, that's filling me
Somebody hurts you, so you hurt me So I hurt somebody else, who I have never seen Who hurts somebody else, why on down the road Who hurts somebody else who goes on home
This is love and dangerous There's whole lots of things in my head This is love, it's spilling me,
You're poking knowingly, slipping numbers on the wall About the price of diamonds that sparkle when you call About the price of breathing that can not hurt you at all About the fools in schools, who could slip to fall
It's Love and Desperation
This is love and dangerous There's whole lots of things in my head This is love that's filling me
It's Love and Desperation With Love and Desperation
