Did Me Wrong

Black and white, whole universe White and black, paddywhack Paddy cake, what's my little baby's fate? Saw her name on the grave, didn't even misbehave Never got to be a lover slave Save her letters and her tears Bad luck, broken mirrors Daddy didn't want a queer, more than CIA he feared Brittany speared, made a monster, hiding in the zoo Ate the keeper, singing opera, there was nothing left to do I say hello and you've got me all aflame You say mellow and my water's cool again You say come on and my heart is beating fast You say get off, get me off before I crash Talk me down low, to the ground I'm feeling blue, I never knew a love like this I recognized his faceless face Like a wound that won't erase Like a tomb for me to groom Switchin' on my granny's broom This house I kept sheen and swept He meant no harm But boy did he do me wrong Boy you did me wrong But boy you get me off Boy you did me wrong But boy you get me off And so it goes Another horror show of woes Begotten, love forgotten Side of the road, smashed up like kill Love not to feel Drag me up off the floor One last dance, another chance stolen Heart swollen shut Momma's old baby girl rut Praying for daddy to come home Handed down blues, every shade, every hue I beg our lady for the new 'Cause there's nothing left to do I say hello and you've got me all aflame You say mellow and my water's cool again You say come on and my heart is beating fast You say get off Boy you get me off Boy you get me off Boy you get me off Boy you get me off
