I went to look for the store that sold chocolate ice cream I wanted it real bad I had never tasted it before and it was my hearts true yearning
I didn’t know where or when or how to find it But I went out looking for it Hoping to find you So you can show me where it is
And I did But you flat out refused to tell me where it is Said it would kill me That it would taste bad And was awful for my health
I burned my ties to you that day Burnt and buried you I liked you, but what can I do? What i really wanted was that chocolate ice cream You wouldn’t mean as much as it did to me anyway, any-day,
Baby,
I found another version of you Leaning on the bus stand Waiting for a bus to take you somewhere you promised you’d Never-land
You looked at me, smiling. Smirking? I’m not sure Told me that chocolate ice cream I’m looking for might be bad for my health But you pointed your finger East and said “That way”, anyway Showed me where it was since I wanted it so bad, anyway
On the way to the store , I was so excited I could barely contain my squeals (screams).
It took me way too long and cost me way too much to get there, But I never cared; What’s an empty pocket? A few more- Night scares, wet dreams and red beds, When I can get my hands on that ice cream ? - chocolate, like I said.
I found the store I was looking for, it was bright red And all the other colours hung out of it like a clown’s head You opened your mouth for me and I walked in, dead scared With a happy smile on my face cause I didn’t care.
Inside you handed me my first dose, my chocolate ice cream ! The drug I was looking for all along It was here, I could finally be rescued And set free.
Every time I ate it I relished it Ravaged it, devoured it , Drank it in, sucked it hard, kissed it, licked it till it was dripping wet. Pocketed it (for laters, cause what if I run out of it, I could never tell), Till I was sick of it It was making me sick! Every time I ate it I got sick I couldn’t stomach it! But I didn’t see it, I was in the thick of it. All I saw was the chocolate ice cream my daddy made me dream of at night in my childhood bed Oh dear me, I never stood a chance I was neck deep in it before I even knew it, Welcome to my secret dance, It all happens in my secret shed.
One day I was too sick Needed some fresh air Got out of the store To get some quick breaths Down my breasts To hush the beast in my chest cage and get a moment’s rest, With my hands on my knees and my back bent over Broken like an old woman on her, deathbed
Looked up at the sign board outside your store it read, “Nothing breeds here, you’ll rot here, once you’ve had your fill of our chocolate ice cream, you’ll never leave here, you’ll be left for dead”
Ugh what a journey should’ve read the signposts All the times you tried to sign post, me, I was hell deaf, love blinded, what a creep show.
It didn’t matter that I didn’t see it before I felt sick, I was sick From the inside out Had to puke some more Till I was crawling on the side walk, Cold dead floor Sprawled out on all fours; All out of chocolate ice cream, Finally I didn’t want anymore.
So thanks but no thanks I won’t be buying anymore Of your chocolate ice cream, poison! Daddy’s dead He was wrong to begin with No one’s home anymore That place don’t exist anymore
Goodbye You all deserve it Bunch of cheap shows Stay there rotting in your pit holes I’m headed out, heading out I’m out. Count me out, Of your flop-show.
Burning bridges once more . Never coming back to this side of the road anymore. Your place don’t exist anymore It’s in cinders I’ve burnt it down to the ground The ashes are sound ; I’ve made a bed for myself, I can lie on.
I’m safe and sound now No thanks to you I found my own now Freedom is mine I took the road less travelled, and I’m gone now You can’t find me no more
