FRAGMENT 8333

It's 3 a.m. on Tuesday
I check the weather
It's gonna be cold all week
I put on my green sweater
I get to my window
Watch the branches swing in the breeze
Get a good book
Make a warm drink
Maybe raspberry tea
She calls me
She says
"Can I come over?"
And I say
"Okay
But the fire's dying
It's gonna get colder"
And she says
"Don't worry
I'll keep you warm"

She says
"I promise you'll be warm"

And she walks in
And I swear she's a sight to see
Her skin is bone white
She's got no flesh
She's just a skeleton smiling at me
I say
"What do you want?"
She says
"All I need is you and raspberry tea"
[Verse 2]
We sit and talk
And I say
"I'm a fan of your work"
She says
"The pleasure's mine
I like your style
I love your t-shirts"
And I say
"What happens now?" and she says
"You can come with me"
And I say
"Why would I do that when I'm so cozy with my tea?"
She says
"It's no use
When you're sitting here with Death
You've got nothing to lose"
And I say
"Maybe you're right
And maybe I do"

And she walks in
And I swear she's a sight to see
Her skin is bone white
She's got no flesh
She's just a skeleton smiling at me
I say
"What do you want?"
She says
"All I need is you and raspberry tea"

And she comes back
It's like she's never gone
And she takes my hand and pulls me into the dark
And I'm laughing
I swear I never laughed that hard

And she walks in
And I swear she's a sight to see
Her skin is bone white
She's got no flesh
She's just a skeleton smiling at me
I say
"What do you want?"
She says
"All I need is you and raspberry tea"

All I need is you and raspberry tea
All I need is you and raspberry tea
All I need is you and raspberry tea
