Requiem For A Dying Rock God

It's 3 am and I'm thinking of you 
I'm wondering what we would do 
if you were here
but you're not and that sucks 
the low grade coke is wearing off
and I'm alone at the back of the bus 
the first time since the dreaded fall of 92

I don't want or have to 
try at all to impress you
I just wanna wanna wanna wanna wanna 
find out how your dress looks lying on the floor
keeping close company with licensed g string 
and my trademarked one of a kind 
gnarly devil bat uniform

Then after I caressed you 
and I had undressed you 
I'd love to show you 
all the fun things I can do 
with my ridiculously elongated tongue

what's that you got a man ?
well he can't do that - i know he can't
he wont mind if I borrow you for a while 
I got a real nice bus parked right outside 
and there's plenty of room for two or twenty four 
if some girlfriends want to party with a real rock star

You're busy ? there must be some mistake
no you don't understand 
do you have any idea who your're turning down 
or just how f*****g big I am? 

You've never heard of Doctor Love 
surely you jest 
wait a minute you don't have to leave
come back here and put me to the test
what's changed have i lost my edge?
maybe it;s time to get back into costume 
yeah that must be the big difference

Gene Simmons? Let's see, how many others can we name...so funny and sharply barbed! Expletives notwithstanding, the lines are so clever and dead on! "Maybe it's time to get back into costume. Yeah that must be the big difference" ...Great read!
