He put his hand on my shoulder
Something like an insect
A bug
A familiar bug I know
Tasting me
Pricking at my skin
Taking samples
Away, away
Off to another place
I'm scared to go
Water's nearby
You gonna dip?
Nah, nah, mami
But you go
The water's warm
I bet it is
But it's dark too
And when it's warm and dark
It's like going into your own grave
Wanna taste the fruit, mami?
You got fruit for me
Where you gonna put it?
On a plate?
In my palm?
You gonna let me lick the juice off
Ay, I'm bad, baby
Ay, I know too much
You gonna put a hole in my head
And take out what I know?
Show it to me
Ask me if it looks
Familiar?
You gonna put your hand on my shoulder
And ask me if I know the touch?
Tickles, you know
Gives me the shivers
Reminds me of being a little girl
With nothing but a doll
And my Daddy's hand
You know what I'm saying
You gotta give me
Something to hang onto
If you're going to tell me to go with you
You gotta give me more than love
You gotta give me something to believe in, baby
I got my garters off
I'm tickled
So tell me
What do you believe in?
You got a church you can take me to?
You got a prayer I can say?
You got some holy water in your pocket?
Don't slap me, baby
I can't help being bad
I just need to be lead, baby
Lead me right
To the water
And teach me
How to drink
