She Protesteth Too Much
She Protesteth Too Much
She spends her time delusional
sucking down whiskey and rye
Quoting verses and scripture
with that twinkle in her eye
Always one eye focused
while the other roams at will
Wreaking havoc and mayhem
it's how she gets her thrills
Pity the fool who loves her
he imbibes as well
They speak the same language
greek, near as I can tell
She's full of yarns and fables
me thinks, even she believes
Words often laced with venom
full intent to make you bleed
So, I laugh at her indignance
smile at denials and such
Oh yes, I do believe...
she protesteth too much.
