The Cupid Song

[triplegemini]

These are the lyrics to a song written by the brother of a good friend of mine (psycholizard in 2004). I've not yet heard the music... but, I really can feel for what the words are saying. Perhaps when I next visit Boston, I'll get a chance to hear them.

I'm lookin for that blind kid
cupid is his name
he runs naked through the streets,
the dude's got no sense of shame.
wearin nothing but a fanny pack
where he keeps his poison darts
goes gang bangin at midnight
and he shoots dudes in their hearts

gotta gun down the god-o' love
for the nasty things he do
gotta gun down the god-o' love
for shootin me and not shootin you

I told him 'you stay outta my hood'
but the dude wouldn't listen to me
he shot with that dirty dart
while we talked underneath the tree
he hit me straight through the heart
and as if that wasn't enough
he didn't mess with you at all
in fact he just had to laugh

gotta gun down the god-o' love
for the nasty things he do
gotta gun down the god-o' love
for shootin me and not shootin you

If you catch up with your friend cupid
please tell him I'm still stupid
please tell him that I'm lackin,
shhh don't tell him that I'm packin

gotta gun down the god-o' love
for the nasty things he do
gotta gun down the god-o' love
for shootin me and not shootin you

I think I'm going to keep my eye out for the little prick and run him down if I get a chance.
