PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Rewrite of the Janet Jackson song by the same name. Part of my Janet Jackson book/music project

This time no baby

We won't be just walkin' by

We won't be leavin'

With even the smallest of smiles

No, this time we'll be leavin' 'em there

With nothin' at all

Nothin but a living nightmare

No need to be looking shy

When it comes to murder

We both know

You ain't so innocent

And this won't be your first

Last Friday you took out two

This one you'll do three

Stab with the devil

In your eye

Then maybe leave a couple to hang

I hope you  understand

We may both

Have to serve a little time

No more  weekends for a while

To relax and unwind

Time and time again

To be normal like them we have tried

But  it seems the carnal flesh

Is just too weak

Now it's time to cash in sin's check

I'm ready if you are to go

I promise you

This much at least

Charles Manson Jr

Will show you one hell of a bloody good time

Chorus

Come on baby

Let's show them

Our Helter Skelter way

Let's give them troubles

They won't soon forget

And let's do it today

Come on with me

Give them hell

For the shit pill of our lives

They've made

Let me take you on Satan's escapade

Let's go!

Es-ca-pade

We'll have a hell of  a time

Es-ca-pade

Like the Beatles foretold

We'll leave a fine maddness behind

Es-ca-pade

Won't you join me

In deranging your mind

Es-ca-pade

A devilish little escapade!

So why hold back?

When you know you really wanna

Make your mark this time

For all time

They made fictional rules up

To try and keep us

In their white man's line of lines

Now we'll cut and break them

As we go along

Won't no one tonight

Spoil our rotten little fun

Chorus

Don't know about you

But my mind is sick and  tired of

All the bullshit

They injected into us

Over the years

They've programmed and worked

It's pushed us to this

Their and our last fatal fall

Worked so hard all week

Maybe if they had known

It was their last

They would have played more

Now there's a debt to hell

To be paid

Gotta fulfill a satanic deal that we made

Ready to go

Ready for that crimsion to flow

I promise you girl

This much at least

I'll show you

One hell of a bloody good time

Chorus
