Lace and Ribbon

I’ll pick my shortest dress with the lowest cut
just so you don’t have to imagine much.
I’ll roll my knee socks up high—
black ribbon and lace—
just so I can watch you tear them off.
I’ll put my lipstick on in my brightest red
just so you can watch me stain your skin.
I’ll wear my tallest heels
just so I can wear them to bed
when you put my laced legs
above your head.
You’ll lie back real slow
and want me to put on a show.
You’ll do, baby.
And the show’s on the road.
