Damn Peskies

why yes I'd be delighted!
only I've not the nerve to ask
where you keep the jelly beans
and would you care to dance?

Swing me softly, cotton tree
Set me gently on your knee
Twirl me toward the dusty floor
'Til the peskies spin no more

friend, I've not the courage
to liberate my arms and feet
so kiss me like we're dying fast
and pull the strings controlling me

Dance me faster, til we fall
Like peeling sunshine off the wall
Tangle me in whispered lust
Drown the peskies if you must
