Lyrics:

When I step out the door
Keep it simple but you want more
Like a fire I'll be burning 
Keep the cold out yet you're yearning 
You want to see a look underneath 
But I stay true to my teeth 

When he leaves the house 
His eyes will follow
All he wants is to bite and swallow
May be dumb but I wish he knew 
How I'm the only one keeping him in tune
Lets keep it known, how I'm all fine being alone
He's no cupid, he's so stupid
But I got an eye for shining diamonds

This time I need a real knight
Not a  casanova, that knows how to do the job
The job right over
This time I need one with spite
Not a casanova, that knows how to finish me off
Make me go for takeoff

I don't want no, casanova
I'm wasted from this, casanova
I don't want no, casanova
I'm wasted from this, casanova

When I walk on the scene
All I want is to be seen
Like a diamond I'll be shining
You know you're only buying
Everyone wants a piece
But only if you have a leese
Grand carpet red carpet
Any show I'm only yours

When he leaves the house 
His eyes will follow
All he wants is to bite and swallow
May be dumb but I wish he knew 
How I'm the only one keeping him in tune
Lets keep it known, how I'm all fine being alone
He's no cupid, he's so stupid
But I got an eye for shining diamonds

This time I need a real knight
Not a  casanova, that knows how to do the job
The job right over
This time I need one with spite
Not a casanova, that knows how to finish me off
Make me go for takeoff

I don't want no, casanova
I'm wasted from this, casanova
I don't want no, casanova
I'm wasted from this, casanova

Look and see he's all around the block
Do you see he's around every corner
Have you seen he's in every shady alley
Have you seen 
Look and see
Look and see

This time I need a real knight
Not a  casanova, that knows how to do the job
The job right over
This time I need one with spite
Not a casanova, that knows how to finish me off
Make me go for takeoff

I don't want no, casanova
I'm wasted from this, casanova
I don't want no, casanova
I'm wasted from this, casanova

The Night

Don’t ask me why, but since a while already I wanted to make a song about drugs or drug addiction, but I was always missing time or inspiration, if not both! And, all of a sudden, don’t ask me why again, a melody started turning in my mind and blurry ideas of lyrics came…

Actually, maybe I know why! I reflected on crazy corporation managers making crazy things (yes, I know a few, but no, I won’t name any here) and got to the conclusion that the simplest and most probable explanation for their senseless behaviors was that they were on cocaine and, separately, I saw again the iconic scene of the memorable Billy Mack giving an important message to kids about drugs. Sometimes, it doesn’t take more than that to start writing music and lyrics, but usually it takes a lot more serious efforts before you can publish something reasonably good.

In this case, I was simply missing the vocabulary: I don’t know this kind of slang, even in my mother tongue. So, I needed to do some researches and learnt few things, thanks to Google and whoever created such useful summaries, even I doubt they ever intended to have it used as song inspiration (https://www.snohd.org/DocumentCenter/View/2516/Drug_Names_Slang_2019_05_09 and https://www.addictioncenter.com/drugs/drug-alcohol-slang/)! 
Moreover, the recording itself was kind of a trip, with its up and down, making me feel happy, then angry, complicate the simple and simultaneously simplifying the complex, not always for the best. At the end, I wasn't sure what's real and what's only in my head, what I could actually put down and what was still only a dream. So, before getting totally crazy myself, I decided to stop and to publish this Pill Lady Chaser in its not raw anymore, but not fully polished neither shape. 

I hope you like it and that it won't drive you nut!
