J. Paul Getty Blues
A femme fatale
A femme fatale
A femme fatale
No ordinary girl
Someone so wild
Someone so strong
To keep you trembling
All night long
Enclosed
Complete
Secure
Keep you on your toes
Whenever she is near
To open to her in a swoon
A rush of love
A self-inflicted wound
Drop your guard
You risk it all
You become the beggar
To her beck and her call
And she’s so cool
So capricious
So contained
With her perfect looks
And her perfect aim
This game is futile
Any treaty fragile
But this femme fatale
Is no ordinary girl
You wouldn’t have it
Any other way
Win or lose
It’s all the same
A femme fatale
A femme fatale
A femme fatale
No ordinary girl
