The Marriage Creed
So now little man you’ve grown tired of grass
L.S.D., Goofballs, Cocaine, and hash
And someone pretending to be a true friend
Said “I’ll introduce you to miss heroin.”
Well honey, before you start fooling with me
Just let me inform you of how it will be
For I will seduce you and make you my slave
I’ve sent men much stronger than you to their graves
You think you could never become a disgrace
And end up addicted to poppy seed waste
So you’ll start inhaling me one afternoon;
You’ll take me into your arms very soon
And once I have entered deep down in your veins
The craving will nearly drive you insane.
You’ll need lots of money, as you have been told
For darling, I’m much more expensive than gold
You’ll swindle your mother and just for a buck
You’ll turn into something vile and corrupt
You’ll mug and you’ll steal for my narcotic charm
And feel contentment when I’m in your arms
The vomit, the camps, your gut tied in knots,
The jangling nerves screaming for just one more shot
The chills and cold sweats, the withdraw pains
Can only be saved by my little white grains
There’s no other way and there’s no need to look,
For deep down inside you will know you are hooked
You’ll desperately run to the pusher and then
You’ll welcome back into your arms once again
And when you return, just as I foretold
I know you will give me you body and soul
You’ll give me your morals, your conscience, your heart
And you will be mine until
Death do us part
