Promiscuity - ANTIGONE

It hasn’t been like this from the start

Like a child forgets her lisp, your young tart

Has faded in you

Is departing from you

Now that your loins she has signed

Now that she has with you spent time

She’s leaving you

And she’s beautiful

I could never see

Any reason to be

Close to you

While she was so rudely

Riding around

With you all over town

But as she walks away

I notice that we kind of look the same

Oh, promiscuity laughs

She kept us apart, so we might last

I know her, she knows me

That’s not far apart

Double entendré jealousy

3 made it an art

But she’s leaving me

And she’s beautiful

I could never see

Any reason to be

Close to you

While she was so rudely

Riding around

With you all over town

But as she walks away

I notice that we kind of look the same

Oh, promiscuity laughs

She kept us apart, so we might last

And though she is leaving

She’ll always be here

With us both telling stories

We don’t want to hear

'Cause the things that we’ve done

And never knew to fear

Seem to keep us apart

However near

(Breakdown)

Irreconcilability

Is the inevitable fee

Whether or not you play

With the fish in the sea

I could never see

Any reason to be

Close to you

While she was so rudely

Riding around

With you all over town

But as she turns away

I notice that we kind of look the same

Oh, promiscuity laughs

She kept us apart, so we might last

(Coda)

As she wanders quietly away, giving the eye to fresh new prey,

behind her trails a fishing line, that joins our loins to our hearts…
