BABY'S GOT A TOOLBOX
by The Right Honorable Rantin N. Raven-Faux VI
Performing with Hot Licks of Myassa.
Live in The Newly Renovated Santorum Ballroom©, May 23, 2016.


Your love:
Is a Swiss army knife, so many tools to use;
a universal screwdriver to screw whatever moves;

With your adjustable socket wrench, you always get your nut;
as a simple pair of pliers, you spread, then tighten up;

Your love is like a tape measure, I know its got to end;
a vice grip pulling old Prince Albert once more round the bend;

You are HVAC, running hot and cold;
You were a box cutter when you hijacked my soul;

Or you're a crow bar prying pieces from my heart;
the duck tape that puts it back together, always leaving out a part;

You're a soldering iron burning yourself into my tears;
a rat tail file for sharpening your claws and then my fears;

You're always the timer with the time for everyone;
each second fixed upon my heart, and you're the staple gun;

You are a shop vac, sucking life right out of me;
when you make me pop my top, then you're a church key;

You're super glue, can't pull away from you;
a c-clamp I wish I could unscrew;
Baby, you're a hammer, you nail everyone you do;

My love is an ice pick
carving your icy ... frozen ... heart.


From the liner notes, written by The Right Honorable Rantin N. Raven-Faux VI:
''This song is dedicated to The Right Honorable Spouse, without whom none of this would be necessary. She seems to be tired of just pussy-whippin' me, now she wants wants somethin' she calls 'street cred', whatever that is, makin' her out to be some sorta badass heart breakin' country girl. First thing I saw was her tool box, so I looked around in it and was struck with inspirations. Most of em don't make much sense, but neither does the RHS. As long as she's appeased, who am I to complain?

I want to thank Hot Licks of Myassa for backin' me up and playin' so loud nobody could hear me or the words. Also, thanks to the Newly Renovated Santorum Ballroom© for lettin' us play without anybody else bein' there. (Remember to look at their upcomin' schedule, cause y'all will be frothin' to see what comes out of the Santorum in Myassa this year.)''
