"Black Widow" lyrics

Black Widow                 Nanci Hobson  April 30  2011

I cut myself the other day

Yea…Cut wide open on things you say

I bandaged it …. now you can’t tell…

it’s still bleeding …. it hurts like hell

full moon rising … mackerel sky…

Southwest  wind  blowing cold tonight

black cloud ….I know it well….

 

Chorus:

 

Strut your skull and crossbones

As long as you don’t bring it home..

I’ll turn my cheek once, but not twice…

I learned my lesson long ago…

Learned real good from a black widow

you’re gonna hang around here…

You’d better be nice.

 

You think …you got me good tonight…

Pull those strings…pull them tight…

I’ll tell you now … I don’t like pain

When I get some….. I give it back again…

You got jingle… you’re lookin’  tall …

But I won’t be your voodoo doll…

You got the wrong girl….for the wrong game….

 

 (repeat chorus)

 

open door…. broken light

Shadows dark…no more cry…

Promises… all undone

Minutes die… one by one

Pick it up …cold as ice

There is no… sacrifice

Nothing left… so what I gain

Is everything

Is everything…..

Is everything…..

I learned my lesson long ago

Learned real good from a black widow

You’re gonna hang around here….

You’d better be nice.
