Katy Kirby - Drop Dead

The going rate for roses
is the lowest that it has been
since 1997
and if anyone knows, well
they’re not telling why

And the current cost of diamonds
has the market in a tailspin
seems like everyone’s decided
that synthetics are preferable
no matter the price, and?

Let me drop dead gorgeous
Let me down quickly
Tell me when you want me
Whenever you want me to give up
(I’ll give up on you)

All the natural consequences
and the body mass indexes
and hyaluronic acids
up against my throat
pressed into my neck

Oh! Baby burn the evidence
at the bottom
of the breakfast trash
it’s a blood oath it’s a covenant
and it’s so good to be at her mercy again

Let me drop dead gorgeous
Let me down quickly
Tell me when you want me
Whenever you want me to give up
(I’ll give up on you)

Blushing at the college girls
in that club
called “Signs and Wonders”
there’s no virgin territory for
a body like hers
a body of water
it makes ‘em un-pinnable
makes ‘em un-fenceable
un-outlineable
-bermuda-triangles…

Let me drop dead, Gorgeous…
