The melt in your mouth umami maid
Stiff in the bed where she stayed
Ready to go but rarely laid
Like a longing life of dirt delayed

The sour funk of the aftermath
Flaring the cheeks of the Wife of Bath
Making a kink in the vapid path
Like a pacifist with a heart of wrath

When the night is done
All the creatures go back home
Ready to go but so alone
Like a silent telephone
Like a silent telephone
Like a silent telephone

The stiff in your hand abrasive man
Jumped in his skin when you walked in
Ready to go but feeling thin
Like a battered beast in a squalid den

The sticky sweat of a candy-cane
Brushing away the hair in shame
Lapping the languid flaccid thing
Like a solemn oath pledged in vein

When the night is done
All the creatures go back home
Ready to go but so alone
Like a silent telephone
Like a silent telephone
Like a silent telephone
