Ships That Sink

Hi my name is candy I play bass in the band
I've got a million people worship me my head in the sand
I've got a tattoo on my shoulder of a dagger and rose
Bells upon my fingers and a ring through my nose
Candy makes a record it's an instant hit
But not as instant as the hit she got off one little bit
Might have a tattoo on her shoulder of a dagger and rose
The ink it might be running be that's just how it goes

It's getting harder all the time
Can't even find a word to rhyme
It's not as easy as it's supposed to be
Suppose it's best if I leave

Belly full of serpents and a head full of hurt
A book of unsung ballads that the critics said won't work
So she tried this being outrageous
But the tunes just weren't contagious
Her face wasn't as famous as the next in line

Love me hold me keep me close don't ever let me go
Like me help me keep me warm don't ever say no
