lyrics

Take My Body (Not My Soul)
-Roach-

Take my body
Baby, not my soul
You're digging deeper
But you know your role
You've been bidding
On what you see
But I ain't selling
No, you can't buy me

They be preying
On the weak-hearted
I see 'em coming
But mine's well guarded
Seduction
God, gold & glory
They came to conquer
They've got nothing holy

Take my body, baby, not my soul
What you're doing is despicable
You don't need my mind to get much higher
All you require is my pacifier

So you head out west
'Cause your mamma's in need
And you find yourself
Intertwined in greed
There's a top hat man
With a dotted line
Points a yellow-bellied hand
"Come on and sign!"
With his eyebrow cocked
And his mouth drawn thin
You stare in shock
Where the bullet went in
But flesh and blood
Don't matter at all
Just give it up now
Like he said-

Take my body, baby, not my soul
Have a taste, but don't eat me whole
You can get close, but don't cross the line
Sorry little girl, you just ain't my kind
Sorry little girl, you just ain't my kind

I see 'em coming
