You punished me, and put the whip away.
You spoke curses at your previous place.
I knew it then that you were here to stay.
I came inside to find you there for pay
Under John addressing my God of lace.
You punished me, and put the whip away.
You charged me for a sample of DNA
To test the blood for ****** disease's trace.
I knew it then that you were here to stay.
I bought the strongest ****** of the day
And pulled it out to finish just in case.
You punished me, and put the whip away.
You sold yourself for something hard to say
To such a softly touched suffering face.
I knew it then that you were here to stay.
I heard the price rise from the pew to pray
On father beads for mother full of grace.
You punished me, and put the whip away.
I knew it then that you were here to stay.
