Screw and Scream

by Mad Hatter - Capricorn


Screw and scream
is all we ever seem
to do
half real
half dream
water and gasoline
Scream and screw
make your point
then leave---
Yes, Yes, Yes---
it’s up to you.

Couples on the street
Indiscreet, hands wander
All over each other
Straight and gay 
Night and day
Sex is in the air
everywhere
There is no way
around that.

Fight and drink
there’s a plan
to pass the time away
what did we think
we were doing
when we tied the knot
when we tied one on
All our plans shot
to hell and back
One time too many.

Make room for me
somewhere in your scheme
Let bygones be
Don’t leave me
Out to dry
Don’t want to ponder
why I’m here alone
by-and-by.
