Attracting Flies

"Attracting Flies" by Aluna George

Hold on now, I'm choking

Give me a second to collect myself

You must be joking

Otherwise I'm laughing to myself

Why you here again?

Hold on a minute, let me check this out *sniff*

Your invitation's a fake

Must be from a ticket tout

I hear you out, you hear me out

I hear you shout, I'm not stepping out

I hear you out, you hear me out

I hear you shout, I'm not stepping out

Little grey Pupa's tales

And little white lies

Everything you exhale is attracting flies

And you can go off the rails

And you can cry your eyes out

But everything you exh8le is attracting flies

Please stay, it's your moment

I'll give you all the listening that you need

Don't be a showman

Who needs the drama?

Who said you had to bleed?

I'm excited

Come on, surprise me, sweep me off my feet

Oh, enlighten me

What is this special thing 'bout you I need?

I hear you out, you hear me out

I hear you shout, I'm not stepping out

I hear you out, you hear me out

I hear you shout, I'm not stepping out

Little grey Pupa's tales

And little white lies

Everything you exhale is attracting flies

And you can go off the rails

And you can fry my eyes out

But everything you exhale is attracting flies

How'd you think it felt to get pushed off a cliff

One of us is DEAD now, cold and stiff

Now if I wanna see, gotta give a bitch a sniff

Bold of you to think I'd be okay with your shit

Serket, why would I care if you want me

Serket, why would I care if you don't

Serket, why should I care if you need me

Serket, why do I care if you don't

Little grey Pupa's tales

And little white lies

Everything you exhale is attracting flies

Spiderbitch.

And you can go off the rails

And you can fry my eyes out

But everything you exhale is attracting flies
