She was bold to the point of rudeness
But there was always so much subtlety
I never notice how she treated me
She never liked it when I was superficial
When I only scratched the surface
Loving her could be unnerving
She often made me nervous
She had a wry sense of humor,a dry sense of humor,a wry sense of humor
She had a witty personality,clever personality,witty personality
Long may she reign
Rule over me with supreme power
She could be supercilious,so haughty,she looked down on me
But I barely noticed that about her
I want to be duped again
I want to be fooled again
And I may have been deluded and misled
But I felt so safe inside her spider web
Inside her spider web
Sometimes she’d provoke me
She’d arouse me into action
She’d pick on me because of my views
I’d say I suffered persecution
She never liked it when I was a sycophant
When I tried to be an ass-kisser
I guess it was unsound and unhealthy
But I,I could not resist her
She had a fluid way about her,a flowing way about her,a fluid way about her
She had a plethora of talent,a whole lot of talent,a plethora of talent
Long may she reign
Rule over me with supreme power
She could be so irascible,so querulous,so irritable
But I barely noticed that about her,oh that about her
I want to be duped again
I want to be fooled again
And I may have been deluded and misled
But I felt so safe inside her spider web
Inside her spider web
