Elvis Has Left The Building

And the tears you gave me

are nothing compared to the pain

I tried to laugh it off

but each attempt in vain

No, I will not hold it against you

holding a grudge isn't me

So then I'll simply say good bye

and with my pride, leave the party.

It doesn't matter that you have changed now

it doesn't matter that you care

Your needs and wants and desires have been left behind

So has your intense stare

You said that it is forever

but, baby, forever's come and gone

I, then, realized that this was your game

and I was just a lowly pawn

No, I won't hold it against you

for you don't matter no more

Elvis has left the building now

as well as the nearby alcohol store!

A Woman's Warning

I may be a girl

but I sure as hell am not weak

I may be a lady

but I can do more than i speak

I may be a woman

who can bear your future

But I am a person

a person, not a freak!

You think you can intimidate

and scare like a child

Oh, you don't know my temper

it is rare, but not mild

While I can birth

I can kill with equal ease

If you cross me the wrong way

I will do much more than just tease

It may be a joke for you to laugh at

but sexist comments are a bane for me

While you simply say and let it go

it is a scar insane for me

I don't know why you think that you will get away with it

do I look like someone who will forever live with it?

I will take myself and the comforts I bring

and move away from your traumas, in joy I will sing

It isn't running away when it is the harder thing to do

it is a choice, for even a woman must do what a woman must do

I think it is best if you get your act together soon

else the repercussions in the near future will turn you a loon

We all wish only the best for you because it is our nature

but things can change, as I can see in the near future

mothers, daughters, sisters and wives

don't forget, these are all real lives

So stop playing with us, you morons of men

you don't need to be a cock just because she is a hen!
