Temporary Like Achilles

Standing on your window honey

Yes, I've been here before

Feeling so harmless

I'm looking at your second door

How come you don't send me no regards ?

You know I want your lovin'

Honey, why are you so hard ?

Kneeling 'neath your ceiling

Yes, I guess I'll be here for a while

I'm trying' to read your portrait, but

I'm helpless, like a rich man's child

How come you send someone out to have me barred ?

You know I want your lovin'

Honey, why are you so hard ?

Like a poor fool in his prime

Yes, I know you can hear me walk

But is your heart made out of stone, or is it lime

Or is it just solid rock ?

Well, I rush into your hallway

Lean against your velvet door

I watch upon your scorpion

Who crawls across your circus floor

Just what do you think you have to guard ?

You know I want your lovin'

Honey, but you're so hard.

Achilles is in your alleyway

He don't want me here

He does brag

He's pointing to the sky

And he's hungry, like a man in drag

How come you get someone like him to be your guard ?

You know I want your lovin'

Honey, but you're so hard.
