The Dear Hunter
The 9th track finds Hunter hurt and full of anger after discovering Ms. Leading’s secret life as a prostitute. In a drunken state, he vents out his frustrations in a letter for her and leaves it at the crossroads.
This song, along with several others, first appeared on the 2004 LP of the same name.
[Verse 1]
Dear Ms. Leading, I hate to tell you that I no longer need your services
The bitter fabricating manufacturer of lust you have been presented as
Doesn't do a thing for me, I now know your identity
A black widow who tempts her prey with promises of love
If ignorance is bliss, wish I were blissfully ignorant, but I'm not
I'm enlightened now, light has been presented to me
In spite of you
[Chorus]
Come now, Ms. Leading, I regret to inform you
I've fallen out of lust
It must be so hard to understand
(Oh no, I don't think so, oh no, I don't think so)
Did you really think me a fool enough to play along?
Make-believing everything you said was true
Push your pouting lips on other unsuspecting lovers
(Oh no, I don't think so, oh no, I don't think so)
[Verse 2]
Dear Ms. Leading, in response to your response, I'm simply unavailable
I hope you got the message in the message that I sent
(Shame on me for falling for someone so dense)
In different times, I might've fooled around for something warm
Something with security
As fleeting as the momentary rapture and the pleasure of
Collapsing in arms so welcoming to others just like me
[Bridge]
(Go take another life
Go take another life
Go take another life)
[Chorus]
Come now, Ms. Leading, I regret to inform you
I've fallen out of lust
It must be so hard to understand
(Oh no, I don't think so, oh no, I don't think so)
Did you really think me a fool enough to play along?
And make-believing everything you said was true
Push your pouting lips on other unsuspecting lovers
(Oh no, I don't think so, oh no, I don't think so)
