Tough Love (Lyric) by Crann Mascher
The follwoing is a slow country song with no discernible structure or melody: Pudding rotates In a glassware shell A little slice of pie A little piece of hell My coffee’s cold Like the night you were leavin’ When I was stone drunk, Dog-sick and dry heavin’ The waitress stomps over Her good eye is winkin’ She wants me to order But I can’t stop thinkin’ I’ve been sitting in this diner In my crinkled old Wranglers When I should be out fishin With my bug-eyes and danglers. I’m scared of your lipstick And afraid of your curls I’m afraid of your cleavage All draped with fake pearls But I made you a promise Which I ain’t keen on breakin’ And I know I’ve got balls, Cause I can feel them quakin’ Then in you walk With your eight-inch heels Your high-pitched squeals Like nails on chalk. Your makeup is trashy Your cigarette’s ashy Your clothes are too flashy But I can’t look away. Well you know that I am a dangerous man And you’re a hellbender they say But if you try to bind me or lasso me in It’ll cost you more than you can pay. You tell me there’s a bun in your oven And that I’m the baker-man, and got ta do right, Well no woman could tame me, and no one would blame me If you ended up face down in a dumpster tonight. But I might have a soft spot for you, little lady, And your whiskey-tinged breath makes me tingle. Let's you an me hop in my old eff-one-fifty And make the dimes in the cupholders jingle.

Up the ladder: The Picture
Down the ladder: I think of you

Great. But unless she has Size 12 feet, try 6" heels. And we don't need the opening remark.

She actually does have size 12s...it's part of the horror.
