recorded at Gene's apt. on Hall St. in a fit of improvisation. It turned out pretty good.

lyrics

Big money midnight
When you come calling out my name
Crawling up to me smiling
Cuz trouble likes to call again

Smokey lies
In your eyes
Make you think you can say anything
Ooh girl
You better step back and think again

Cuz you know, you know
Things ain't the way they used to be
And you know
You better be nice and easy and gentle with me
Yeah

I strike like a knife
All night
I bite like a viper
Lord knows

That's a strange attitude girl
You're the one who left me babe
That's a strange attitude now mama
You're the one who left me

Running blind
Talking backward
Tilt your eyes back
and move delight
Candle light
Think I just can't see
But I know you ain't wearing white

And you know there ain't nothing
you can do to take me down
Cuz there ain't
Ain't no one, ain't no nothing
You can money relate
No how

I strike like a knife
Its all right
I bite like a viper
Yeah you know
You hold me close
Don't even try
Your strange fascination
Collection
Your fashion, your friends all right

That's a strange attitude girl
You're the one who left me babe
That's a strange attitude now mama
You're the one who left me

Take my hand
Its all wrong
You start talking that same old song
You think its funny
Think you're grand
And your heart is so black and tan

Keep on drinking
I strike like a knife
I bite like a viper
All right
