PEEK-A-B00


Creeping up the backstairs 
Slinking into dark stalls 
Shapeless and slumped in bathchairs 
Furtive eyes peep out of holes 
She has many guises 
She'll do what you want her to 
Playing dead and sweet submission 
Cracks the whip deadpan on cue 

 Peek-a-boo 
 Peek-a-boo 
 Peek-a-boo 
 Peek-a-boo 

Reeking like a pigsty 
Peeling back and gagging free 
Flaccid ego in your hand 
Chokes on dry tears, can you understand? 
She's jeering at the shadows 
Sneering behind a smile 
Lunge and thrust to pout and pucker 
Into the face of the beguiled 

 Peek-a-boo 
 Peek-a-boo 

Golly jeepers 
Where'd you get those peepers? 
Peepshow, creepshow 
Where did you get those eyes? 

Strobe lights pump and flicker 
Dry lips crack out for more 
`Come bite on this rag doll, baby! 
That's right, now hit the floor' 
They're sneaking out the back door 
She gets up from all fours 
Rhinestone fools and silver dollars 
Curdle into bitter tears 

 Peek-a-boo
 Peek-a-boo 

Golly jeepers 
Where'd you get those peepers? 
Peepshow, creepshow 
Where did you get those eyes?
