ON TO "JUNKANOO GIRL"
BACK TO STEVE'S CDS
SHE GLIDES DOWN THROUGH THE STREETS FROM THE FERRY DOCKS TO INDEPENDENCE SQUARE
ENTRANCING ALL SHE MEETS WITH THEIR DREADLOCKS FLOWING EVERYWHERE
THEN SHE TURNS OFF TO THE RIGHT NARROW ALLEYS TWISTING BLACK AS NITE
SHE LEADS YOU TO A PLACE WHERE CARNIVAL TURNS INTO A NIGHTMARE
ALL THE MAS BANDS PASSING BY AS THE DOPPLE DOWN TO QUEENS PARK SAVANNAH
ALL THE PEOPLE GETTING HIGH AS YOU THINK YOU'VE FOUND HER AT LAST NIRVANA
YOU STAGGER THROUGH HER DOOR SEE THE CANDLES THERE ON THE BARE DIRT FLOOR
RATTLES SHAKE AS THE MUSIC ROARS VOODOO LADY TELLS YOU WHAT’S IN STORE NOW
YOU TRY TO FEIGN SURPRISE BUT THE WOMAN SEES RIGHT THROUGH YOUR DISGUISE
FLAMING CANDLES SMOKE AND RISE AS THE FIRE PASSES UP HER THIGHS
PASSION FLARES SPARKS FROM HER EYES AS SHE'S CAUGHT YOU UP IN HER WEB OF LIES
AN EDEN WHERE THE SNAKES ARE WISE ENTANGLING TILL SOMEONE DIES NOW
