A Piece of Cloth
A creature is created,
a joy and a blessing to all;
God called her Woman,
Adam named her Eve,
which means she who gives life
Â
Eve was guilty of taking a bite
of the forbidden fruit of the tree of good and evil;
Adam was tempted by her and that was the end of it all,

Interpretive Dance
Shoo,Â
go away.
I only want young, thin, pretty girlsÂ
to look my way.
I don't care if they have anythingÂ

Your a Kraken, a gorgon, a monster.
You don't bite,
It's not even spite.

Screwed over, discriminated against, scrap.
That's what I am.Â
Scrap.
My life is crap.
I can't prove them wrong,
It's stolen away.
No chance of change.
Never mind - I am mad anyway.
Who gives a toss?
I am really no loss.
No one will even notice,
