Evil Mistress
https://soundcloud.com/user-618393096/evil-mistress-v2V1
He met her at a high school party
He was seventeen years old
She beckoned like a silent whisper
She touched his lips and she warmed his soul
He stood with her beside the dance floot
Let his fingers trace her curves
Her aroma filled his head and set a fire to his nerves
V2
They'd get together every evening
And for hours they'd conspire
She convinced him there were shortcuts
To all the things that he desired
But all he found were detours
That led to dead end roads
Spun his wheels in the gravel
And never reached his goals
Chorus
'cause she is an evil mistress
It's plain for all to see
All she'd bring into his life was strife
And misery
He was beguiled by her enchantments
Bur her magic was a curse
Soon she'd become the only one
That could satisfy his thirst
v3
Now they meet up at the local tavern
When his day at work is done
You'll find them sitting all alone
Just pretending like they're having fun
Sometimes she leaves him maudlin
Sometimes she leaves him mean
But mostly she just leaves him
So he don't feel a God damned thing
Chorus
'Cause she is an evil mistress
It's plain for all to see
All she's brought into his life is strife
And misery
He was beguiled by her enchantments
But her magic was a curse
Now she's become the only one
Who can satisfy his thirst
