Delilah

Delilah

(Ode to an unrepentant bitch. A nonsensical journey in seven veils taken over 7 days. A jab in the rib for those who can see themselves here. Did I say jab in the rib?)

And when she danced with seven veils

The scales and gills she then revealed

Delilah

 

I turned around to Sam’s son

And told him that he’d better run

Delilah

 

You know my darling my poor hun

Delilah’s after your little bun

Delilah

 

But poor Sam’s son could hardly speak

His knees were quaking really weak

Delilah

 

She pounced upon him in a streak

A morsel tender and oh so meek

Delilah

 

She chewed well chewed then chewed and chewed

Her face all gory red and lewd

Delilah

 

Oh no no

Delilah

She’d make your white hairs grow

Delilah

Oh no no

Delilah

She’s rotten to the core

Delilah

 

And that my friends was the way

That little Sam’s son went astray

Delilah

 

She was an ogre she could eat

Those little morsels nice and sweet

Delilah

 

They said seize that enchantress

We’ll lock her in a fortress

Delilah

 

She showed them of what she was made

The gills and fin of mermaid

Delilah

 

They said this is some witchery

We’ll execute her with most glee

Delilah

 

They took her to the tower’s edge

They would now push her over ledge

Delilah

 

Oh no no

Delilah

She’s on a trial’s show

Delilah

Oh no no

Delilah

Her poor frame they’d throw

Delilah

 

They said if witch you will bounce

Or all your dark spells now renounce

Delilah

 

She said maybe I’m a bum

But ain’t for sure some bubble gum

Delilah

 

They called her little twat and whore

They locked her in forever more

Delilah

 

In ivory tower she did die

As the years went passing by

Delilah

 

They nailed her coffin oh so fast

Put her in the ground at last

Delilah

 

She pleaded bit and scratched and cried

Her face just withered as she lied

Delilah

 

Oh no no

Delilah

She’s now lost her glow

Delilah

Oh no no

Delilah

Yet her hair’ll still grow

Delilah

 

And when the gravedigger came

To pluck her jewels with no shame

Delilah

 

She said sweet meat you will be

The last meal of my journey

Delilah

 

She chewed yes chewed Oh chewed and chewed

And morsels to her teeth were glued

Delilah

 

Her real face showed it was so crude

Her character so flawed and rude

Delilah

 

And with her last meal it had come

The mark of her lost kingdom

Delilah

 

She flew out haunting all the west

She brought more havoc and unrest

Delilah

 

Oh no no

Delilah

She’s caught on though slow

Delilah

Oh no no

Delilah

You’re her food to sow

Delilah
