Beetlejuice

Bittersweet, Beetlejuice
Bitter me, how sweet of you to
Ask if I'd be your muse
And go and paint me blue

You turned my one-of-one to our one-of-two
On Jamaica Avenue getting it tattooed, 'cause
You make me feel what no other man could do

Lust and desire, oh
You lure me to the flame near your fire
You call me "Miss Mariah," then say
"With your last name, it might sound a little nicer"

Ooh, he got game, sister, and he always wanna play, sister
It seems so strange that I love him
He gon' drive me insane
You gon' be the one to take me to my grave, mister

'Cause you'll lie to my face
And then you'll say that, "Even Jesus forgave"
Then we'll drive to your place
And you'll make love to me while we're listening to "Blonde" by Frank, mmh

Put on that "Godspeed" like you a godsent
And I'll bask in every single moment
Then you'll take me to the peak of your mountain
And then you'll tell me to drink from your fountain

But it's just bittersweet, Beetlejuice
Silly me, how weak of you to
Do me wrong into your amusement
I'll buy your excuses

You know my daddy said, "Don't you play the fool
"You better cut it short, 'cause he gone cut it loose," oh
Only a fool would hold a grudge over old news

But the last time I seen your face was in Atlanta
And I knew that she had took my place because you vanished
We grew distant like you left me on an isolated planet
I'd rather die than be abandoned by you

'Cause you know I didn't love you for the money
Only your sugar and my honey 'cause it was so sweet
But if you never even loved me
Then, my heart will never skip a beat

When you lie to my face
And then you'll say that, "Even Jesus forgave"
Then we'll drive to your place
And you'll make love to me while we're listening to "Blonde" by Frank, mmh

Put on that Godspeed like you a godsent
And I'll bask in every single moment
Then you'll take me to the peak of your mountain
And then you'll tell me to drink from your fountain

But it's just bittersweet, Beetlejuice
Bitter me, how sweet of you to
Ask if I'd be your muse
And go and paint me blue

And I don't understand why you're so short-fused
Always walking 'round with your attitude, but
Only a fool would hold a grudge over old news

Lust and desire, yeah
You lure me to the flames near your fire
You call me "Miss Mariah," then say
"With your last name, it might sound a little nicer"

Ooh, he got game, sister, and he always wanna play, sister
It seems so strange that I love him
He gon' drive me insane
He gon' be the one to take me to my grave
