Jessica Sligter - Man Who Scares Me lyrics

rate me

You fine & foreign man

Your body’s wild,

And startled me

Perhaps I’m a prude

I quiz my brazen effigy,

But all it says is what I prompt

Wave your image at the troops

I frantically attempt to bring ‘em to a halt

You set them loose

Oh, all is changing

Things that I set are re-arranging

My life,

Man who scares me

I could leave your indications behind me

Oh, that’d be a quick fix

Man who scares me

There’s lines drawn, foreign man

In intricate patterns

And I walk them lines

Engraving the patterns,

Carving, carving in the stone

But, trying to change them is tricky

Man who scares me

You’re not like an other lover

That I wine & dine and never see the man

Oh, all is changing

Everytime a little more so

I’m overwhelmed

I’m overcome

You’re lying now, here

Man who scares me

I could leave your indications behind me

Oh, that’d be a quick fix

Man who scares me
