The lady enters with an air
Dripping with sex, curves set to stun
Gentlemen and women stare
Demeanor cocked just like a gun
Clouds of smoke parting their ways
With the glow of golden thighs
Flowing hair and legs for days
Isn't modest, though she tries
Willkommen, Bienvenue
Be anything you dream to be
Hesitation far and few
This page is blank and fresh to ink
Join the lengthy client list
Buying in to all the perks
Line is forming 'round the back
Safe to say the system works
A thousand gazes holding fast
She turns her head and bats an eye
Tracing fingers 'round her glass
Like a queen, needn't ask why
Barkeep's laying it on thick
Frosted lips without a sound
Mind awash with better things
The game is merely lost and found
Hunger less than sated
Cloying dreams reflect no hope
Moral code, in fact, sedated
Answers swing at the end of the rope
Lady in red leaves a mark upon the room
Ghostly remnants linger still
A slight scent of sweet perfume
A fantasy imprinted in their heads
The wife and family
That'll have to do instead
