One of the tracks from Alice Cooper's new album Welcome 2 My Nightmare. This has a skanky, Rolling Stones feel, and plays on the perennial theme of women as a source of danger to the patriarchal, male-dominated societies on which all higher civilizations depend.
The Lyrics:
She was a dirty dream, cool and clean
with seduction dancing in her eyes
She turned around, looked me up and down
It took me by surprise
I tried to run. I tried to hide
but my feet were made of clay
Looked in her eyes. I was paralyzed
and I just couldn’t get away
She licked her lips. They were bloody red
She had the heart of the living dead
She pushed me down on a burning bed
Thought I was in heaven, but instead
she turned her head and she softly said
I’ll bite your face off
I’ll bite your face off
I’ll bite your face off – little man
I’ll bite your face off – you know that I can
She put the whip in the cream
She was a sinner's queen with a delicious angel face
Then she'd invite you in. "C'mon and lick my skin
You'd sell your soul for another taste"
She took my heart. My resistance fled
I loved each lie that I was fed
She pushed me down on a burning bed
This this was in heaven, but instead
she turned her had and softly said
I’ll bite your face off
I’ll bite your face off
I’ll bite your face off – little man
I’ll bite your face off – you know that I can
etc.
