We arrived well after midnight, drove all the way inthe rain The old hotel looked abandoned, not a single light anywhere The night clerk let us in, he moved like he was in pain The elevator was on the fritz, so we had to take he stairs Our room was on the third floor, it felt stuffy and smelled of Lestoil The little fridge hummed and gurgled, the alarm clock was blinking 12:00 We hefted the big duffel on the bed, let it sit there for a while I said, "You think she's still alive?" Jack said, "Open it yourself" The zipper caught a couple times, I had to pull it hard The duffel split open and three feet of tail whipped loose We jumped back and watched her squirm out, yard after yard Her slime oozed off the bed, like cloudy green chartreuse She hissed at first, then she sang... Oh, man, did she sing Her voice like a diamond, cutting through a plate of glass It rose and trilled and yodelled 'till my sinuses began to ring Jack sprang a nosebleed and he sat down hard on his ass She tired kinda fast and her tone lost its glitter and fire Her amber eyes turned dull and her spiny tail went limp My heartbeat slowed a bit, though my loins still throbbed with desire Jack slumped 'gainst the bathroom door, wanking off like a crazed chimp It had to be close to three AM when we got to carving & slicing She was cold and hard by then, her bones turned brittle & blue I wound her tail 'round my neck, Jack found her entrails enticing I said, "Dude, that's a massive woodie!" Jack growled, "Man, screw you" Smoke hazed the room when we set the chairs on fire In my toiletry kit I found two sporks and an old guitar G string We shish-kebab'ed the stringy meat on the string over the pyre When the sun rose we ate, we cried a bit - and we sang Oh, man, did we sing
