Story Behind The Song
I knew a girl in college who was VERY popular with the guys. Slept around alot. Another friend of mine, didnt believe in intercourse before marriage but everything else was ok by her. They didnt get along very well - but i thought they seemed very similar. So i wrote a song about it. In the midst of my ramblings, I through myself into the bridge - just to even things out.

Lyrics
Flesh Queen
Verse 1
Silvie wore her legs like weapons
taking many men, hostage there within
to her secret base they'd all come
she wore kisses like a campaign for her skin
"Vote for me" - she'd say
"i'm the best man for the job. Tried and true" she'd say
"i'm unmatched, amidst this mob"
But they all went away,
the very next day.
And all the sober ears,
can hear them boast and say.
Chorus
"She'll be featured in his eyes"
"She'll be hanging herself there"
"Paying homage to his limbs"
"He's the monument the prayer"
Verse 2
Nadia used rules for courage
She cataloged and labeled
all faces and their deeds
Behind the cover of conviction
She kept her morals warm
while naked between the sheets
"I'm a woman of the code"
She said with a tinny kind of grin
"And I would never, I would never abandon the things that I uphold"
But six months passed like fever, leaving no on in the pink
the sticky limbs unraveled, then the soft spots link by link
the usage -brews the same
Chorus
Bridge
Bathe me in something that means next to nothing
Perfume my mouth with yours
Then squeeze me between the mattress and springs
next to letters and things - that no one should see
Chorus
Here's the lesson I have learned
From what i've heard and what I've seen
These two women are the same
Behold the Flesh Queen
