Throwing Shadows
Pinky asked me if I thought she was kinky
I was fully blessed as she undressed
There were tattoos I would never have guessed
She beckoned saying Come on baby ink me
She whispered I’m only throwing shadows
Life is a river you see how it flows
There are secrets that nobody knows
She whispered I’m only throwing shadows
We were on LaRue Avenue scoring some dope
Long ago we had given up on hope
The drug dealers were banging at Al’s
When I preach in Jesus’s name we’re pals
She whispered I’m only throwing shadows
Life is a river you see how it flows
There are secrets that nobody knows
She whispered I’m only throwing shadows
Well Monday morning the alarm clock screams
Pinky sighed then cried I was lost in my dreams
I went to the shower and I forgot to shave
Walking out the door I shouted “please behave”
She whispered I’m only throwing shadows
Life is a river you see how it flows
There are secrets that nobody knows
She whispered I’m only throwing shadows
Well the house was rocking the circus was in town
The bearded lady was getting it on with the sad clown
I was searching the churches for Pinky deep in prayer
But something told me you’ll get old searching there
In the shadows the black cat hisses
I miss you Pinky and all your wet kisses
You were a demon made from pure shade
Sad to say in the light of day shadows fade
She whispered I’m only throwing shadows
Life is a river you see how it flows
There are secrets that nobody knows
She whispered I’m only throwing shadows
