Bielanko Bielanko[00:00:00]
Born with a face that life would erase[00:00:01]
I chased the frustrated wind to New York[00:00:05]
I fell in love with Monique during a Yanks winning streak[00:00:08]
And we danced to the popping of corks[00:00:13]
I found work in the w**ds of the kitchen where the seeds[00:00:16]
Of my dreams I did plant in the sink[00:00:21]
Where the tower of plates threw shadows on our fates[00:00:24]
And I had too much time for to think[00:00:28]
Fourteen hours a day left me little time to play[00:00:34]
With my lover who slept through her blues[00:00:38]
As the sizzle of filets was the soundtrack that played[00:00:42]
While I struggled through my headaches and flus[00:00:46]
And my vision of a day when we could get away[00:00:51]
Seemed to sink into the suds of the soap[00:00:55]
That I used to make money that I spent on my honey[00:00:59]
For to keep her in Cheetos and d**e[00:01:03]
One day alone with my thoughts and the pans and the pots[00:01:23]
I was beginning to fear for our life[00:01:27]
While the burners threw heat from out under the meat[00:01:31]
I lunged with the edge of a knife[00:01:36]
And as my blood formed a rose with the sweat from my nose[00:01:39]
On the face of a China white plate[00:01:44]
I returned to a time when hope was our friend[00:01:48]
Instead of this b***h who we hate[00:01:52]
I fell to the tiles my face was all smiles[00:02:12]
The sink overflowing a flood as sous chefs and waiters[00:02:17]
And vegetable traders all stood in the path of my blood[00:02:23]
I began to relax and slowly unwind and drift off as the maitre'd cried[00:02:28]
Well this is what happens when love starts to rot and poisons the dishwasher's mind[00:02:37]
I awoke to the sound of Monique calling out from her nightmarish side of our bed[00:02:47]
My wrists were all flesh there were no signs of cuts[00:02:55]
As I reached out to touch her sweet head[00:02:59]
And as the sweat on her face found a new resting place[00:03:03]
On the tip of my fingers I leaned[00:03:07]
Into her ear and told her no fear[00:03:12]
We're just having the same awful dream[00:03:41]
