Don’t Need No Man

I was drunk when I met her, how she liked to dance
She had a loop through her septum and a shaved back head

She was a force to reckon with
We caught a couple words on the way to the bathroom
We agreed we’d met a couple months back
She pushed me on to the couch

She said, “I’ll take you to the bed
But I don’t need no man”
I said, “Well neither do I
We ought to make good friends”

In my little studio, I slept in the closet
In a pile of blankets. I like to sleep naked
I like to sleep right next to you

Off she drove to the city underwater where the levy broke through
Summer stole her, the hurricane’s a-coming but the levee’s unsure
And off she drove to the city underwater where the levy broke through
Summer stole her, the hurricane’s a-coming but the levee’s unsure…
