He keeps looking. Like I'm something for the taking. The way he's staring at me dancing Gets me thinking, I should stop. No concrete action, no kind of evidence, Just a rise of the hairs, A sort of indescribable sense, Warning bad intentions are by, Stay quiet and put and shy. Maybe if I cover more, Maybe if I show a little less, Maybe if I look away, And keep ignoring all the rest, Maybe it's what I have to do.

The Male Gaze
He keeps looking. Like I'm something for the taking. The way he's staring at me dancing Gets me thinking, I should stop. No concrete action, no kind of evidence, Just a rise of the hairs, A sort of indescribable sense, Warning bad intentions are by, Stay quiet and put and shy. Maybe if I cover more, Maybe if I show a little less, Maybe if I look away, And keep ignoring all the rest, Maybe it's what I have to do.
