dont get me wrong oblivion
I never loved you kiddo
you that was always sticking around
spoiling me for everyone else
telling me how it would make
you nutty if I didn't let you
go the distance
and I gave you my breasts to feel
didn't I
and my mouth to kiss

O I was too good to you oblivion old kid that's all
and when I might have told you
to go ahead and croak yourselflike
you was always threatening you was
going to do
I didn't
I said go on you inter-
est me
I let you hang around
and whimper
and I've been getting mine
Listen

there's a fellow I love like I never loved anyone else that's
six foot two tall with a face any girl would die to kiss and a skin
like a little kitten's
that's asked me to go to Murray's tonight with him and see the cab-
aret and dance you know
well
if he asks me to take another I'm going to and if he asks me to take
another after that I'm going to do that and if he puts me into a taxi
and tells the driver to take her easy and steer for the morning I'm
going to let him and if he starts right away putting it to me in
the cab
I'm not going to whisper
oblivion
do you get me
not that I'm tired of automats and Child's and handing out ribbon to
old ladies that ain't got three teath and being followed home by pimps
and stewed guys and sleeping lonely in a whitewashed room thee thou-
sand below Zero oh no
I could stand that
but it's that I'm O Gawd how tired
of seeing the white face of you and
feeling the old hands of you and
being teased and jollied about you
and being prayed and implored and
bribed and threatened
to give you my beautiful white body
kiddo
that's why
