Vampire

Here is a man
Standing on the top stair
Blood dribbling out of his mouth
Vampire of society

He struts 'round town
Hair to one side, sleazy smile
He beckons me with a slimy finger
Into his nest, promises on his lips
I'm drawn into the web like a fly
Don't know why

He picks me up and rattles me 'round so that
All the good stuff falls out
He puts it in his money bag
Leaving me on the floor
Like a porcelain doll
All white cheeks and black eyes
