ESCORT

(album: BEAUTY IN DEATH - 2021)

She's been down the darkest roads
She's been all alone
Strangers seem to come and go
Helps her business grow, yuh
Daddy didn't want your love
He fucked you up
He lost your love
He took your heart
She put a price on her body
You want it, you pay up
A trip to Dubai or Miami
Just so she can lay up

Well, business is business
And girl, I know you're on your way up
Baby, wait up
If you're gonna fuck him for money
Make sure you don't play up
She said

Baby, come and work for me
I can give you love for free, yuh
Baby, come and work for me
I can give you love for free, yuh
You're doing acrobatics with your body
Let the money fall like those leaves, yeah
You told me that you're done with this life
But your friends all disagree, yuh

She said, "I can give you love for free," yeah, yeah
She said, "I can give you love for free" no-no, babe
She said, "I can give you love for free" no-no, no-no
Girl I got what you need, yuh, oh-oh

The penthouse we rented
Said, "I love you," I meant it
The view was expensive
So you show me affection
And I know you're stuck in your ways
Usually wanna get paid
Usually nothing to say
Usually grams in the face, but
Old friend, new friend
Where the fuck's the balance?
Backstabbing, black hearts
Followed you from Dallas (yuh)

Well, business is business
And girl, I know you're on your way up
Baby, wait up
If you're gonna fuck him for money
Make sure you don't play up
She said

Baby, come and work for me
I can give you love for free, yuh
Baby, come and work for me
I can give you love for free, yuh
You're doing acrobatics with your body
Let the money fall like those leaves, yeah
You told me that you're done with this life
But your friends all disagree, yuh

She said, "I can give you love for free," yeah, yeah
She said, "I can give you love for free" no-no, babe
She said, "I can give you love for free" no-no, no-no
Girl I got what you need, yuh, oh-oh

Drifting away
Drifting away
She's sick of this place
New men every day
She wants a new life to live
She wants to feel safe

Drifting
One needle is enough to make a difference
She needs way more than love
She needs commitment
I'll sail you away
Let's fuck off this place
And we can keep on drifting...

Drifting
Drifting
Drifting
Yeah
