Laura calls me in the middle of the nightPasses on her painful informationThen these careless fingersThey get caught in her viceTil they're bleeding on my coffee tableLiving alone isn't all that it's cracked up to beI'm on her side, why does she push the poison on me?Laura has a very hard timeAll her life has been one long disasterThen she tells me she suddenly believesShe's seen very good signShe'll be taking some aggressive actionI fight her wars while she's slamming her doors in my faceFailure to break was the only mistake that she madeHere I am feeling like a fucking foolDo I react the way exactly she intends me to?Everytime I think I'm off the hookShe makes me lose my coolI'm her machine, and she can punch all the keysShe can push any button I was programmed throughLaura calls me when she needs a good fixAll her questions will get sympathetic answersI should be so immunized to all of her tricksShe's surviving on her second chancesSometimes I feel like this godfather deal is all wrongHow can she hold an umbilical chord for so long?I've done everything I canWhat else am I supposed to doI'm her machine, and she can punch all the keysShe can push any button I was programmed throughLaura loves me even if I don't careThat's my problem, that's her sacred absolutionIf she had to, she would put herself in my chairEven though I faced electrocutionShe always says I'm the best friend that she's ever hadHow do you hang up on someone who needs you that bad?Submitted by Michael Hack
