51 Hours

51 hours . . .
[Instrumental]
I think it was 51 BC,
51 hours before the [cleaver](?) broke up you and me,
51 hours before all the pseudo sexual political noise,
Before all the stupid games that come between most girls and boys.
Hate and a few memories, well are you gay?
For 51 hours, you were my slave,
51 hours, you were my slave,
Shack redum, shack 51, you were my slave,
51 hours, you were my slave,
Shack redum, shack 51, you were my slave,
We met where else at a disco,
So what I like to dance,
Something about your body spoke to me so I took a chance,
No rap, was a comment, you know you want me sexist kind,
What more can I ask from somebody wearing pockets in the summer time.
No man is a sucker or so you said,
In the hallway to the building, and hows your waterbed?
You asked me for a kiss, but I tied you up instead,
See what I mean, thats what you get, for thinking with the wrong head.
[Hey, and a](?) few memories, well are you gay?
51 hours, you were my slave,
51 hours, you were my slave,
51 hours, you were my slave.
[Two drops](?) was more than conversation became my only thirst,
Pearl we’ll see you on the B side, but for now the Diamond’s first.
Why does everybody call me Diamond?
Why did you tie your hair so tight?
Well this [kitten](?) don't answer no question see,
Curiosity dies tonight.
So . . .
1 punk to the left,
1 punk to the right,
I hope you like your milkshake thick,
I do, I hope, you like,
Fift . . . fift . . . fift . . . fift . . . fift . . . fift-fifty one hours
51, 51,
51, 51,
51, 51.
For two days I made you kiss me, for two days I made you pay,
Never again will you assume that every girl will come your way,
A graveyard full of questions, and unanswered they'll remain,
My loss you say "ain't that a bitch", my loss is my gain.
51 hours, you were my slave . . .
Don't clock it till you've timed it,
D&P and we out . . .
