This lady says she's got a cherry pie
It says for me it only makes
she'll cut a slice
She built it up so high
Now I'm convinced the taste is nice
This lady says she's got a cherry pie
It says for me it only makes
she'll cut a slice
I'm on my way right now
No, I didn't think about it twice
One day I was down and out
So I went to the mall to shop my feelings out
I had in mind a pair of jeans
and some brand new shoes
A fitted shirt in my favorite color green
I started feeling better so I
stopped to make a call
Then all of a sudden I could not move at all
I felt a warm sensation on
the back of my head
I could not turn around and I
would see her breath
This lady said she's got a cherry pie
It says for me it only makes your gut a slice
She built it up so high
Now I'm convinced the taste is nice
This lady said she's got a cherry pie
Says, for me and only me,
she'll cut a slice I'm on my way right now
No, I didn't think about it twice
There she was,
sitting at the bar one night
By herself, looking at a sign
I thought to myself,
she may be just mine I want some company
I said, being friendly
She said, right back,
I look familiar from the mall
I remember you
I told her I did too
And then we both knew the
truth
The lady said she's got a cherry pie
It says, for me, it only makes sugar slice
She built it up so high
Now I'm convinced the taste is nice
This lady says she's got a cherry pie
Says for me and only me,
she'll cut a slice I'm on my way right now
No, I didn't think about it twice
Go three blocks down and make a left
So you can see my house,
but you are not there yet
Walk up the path where the bushes end
Push the button on the door
and let yourself on in
Go to the end of the hallway,
then on up the stairs
Take your time if you like,
I got some pictures there
I like the pictures there,
I like the wounds on the stairs
I like to stop at those,
at those I like to stop and stare
I can't blame her for not
having shared her pie
For it tasted so much greater
than any had by eye
But it was then she insisted that
her crust had been on me
But I could see it in her face that
it was all a charade
The lady said she's got a cherry pie
Says for me it only makes sugar slice
She built it up so high
Now I'm convinced the taste is nice
This lady says she's got a cherry pie
Says for me and only me,
she'll cut a slice
I'm on my way right now
No, I didn't think about it twice
