Pour the tea, straighten the lace Put a porcelain smile on a porcelain face. Cross my legs, nod at the host While I'm thinking 'bout the way you interact with my throat. Choke me... no, don't. They see a woman made of manners and grace They don't see the hunger printed on my face. My knees are together, but my mind is apart You didn't wreck my life, boy... you just jump-started my heart. Oh Love! Oh CARELESS Love! Da-da, DO-me, Da-da, DESTROY-me Oh Love! You Filthy, Careless Love! You strip the silk right off my skin You trade my virtue for a bottle of gin! I play the Princess for the public view... But I'm a careless, nasty girl for you. Champagne glass, held by the stem Clink, clink I'm looking at you, not listening to them. Your hand under the table, gripping my thigh The auditory duality of a hello and goodbye. Stop it Don't stop Wreck the dress. Smear the paint. Taint the blood of a living saint. I don't want to be good! I don't want to be nice! I WANT TO PAY THE CARELESS PRICE! Look what you did! Look at me! I'm a mess! I love it! Oh Love! Oh Careless Love! You trust me with a halo, but fit me with a glove. You wrecked the life of many a poor girl... And you completely spoiled... this life of mine. Do I look okay? Is my hair flat? "Let's go do it again."
