Malcolm Lucard - I Don't Need A Tattoo Lyrics
I was drunk as a sailor when we first metI don’t know, was it a dare or a bet?All I know is when I came toIt was 10 years later and I still had youCuz you never got dull, you never did fadeYou’re still as bright as the day you were madeWoulda thunk after all these yearsEvery time I get ***** you’re still here?I know, I know it’s the thing you doBut I’m telling you babyI don’t need a tattoo… I got youYou said baby give me your ***** armI promise you honey I won’t do you no harmJust roll up your sleeve take a deep breathCuz I wanna be with you till after deathBut I said no no darling you don’t understandYou’ve already left your mark on this manPricked my heart burnt my soulScribbled graffiti all over my bonesSo if you don’t mind put down that foolCuz I don’t need a tattoo… I got youYou’re a goddess, you’re a nymphYou’re the cross I bearA saint in a burning ring of fireA mother, an anchor, a thorn-crowned heartA bracelet of old barbed wireYou caress my ankle, cover my ass,Ring my neck, lick my belly, ooh!Kiss my cheek and bite my nippleAnd that’s not all that you do, soI don’t need a tattoo….Yeah so maybe I’m a wussMaybe I don’t like painMaybe I’m afraidWhat my momma gonna sayMaybe I’m afraid of permanenceAnd commitmentSides my body already bears the scarsOf a woman whose life is breathing artA woman who love stains my skinLike a thousand kissesFrom a thousand pinsA woman whose eyesBurn me throughA woman whose smileCan turn me blue so…You’re an animated woman riding freeA snake in the talons of an eagleA circle-A, a five pointed starSharp as end of a needleA lotus, a rose, skull and bonesA dragon that the druids flewA high heeled princess, a buxom warriorA dancer that the ancients drew, so…In 20 years what will I doWhen I look in the mirror and I see you?Will I be strong, will I be soft?With the colors of the goddess start to rub off?Will I take off my shirt and walk with pride?Or wear long robes so I can hide?The fact that you’ve changed me for ever, so….
