TITLE (EDIT)
Tease
DESCRIPTION
I was recently told that I'm a tease- I guess I kind of am because I've stayed single and abstinent for over a year now. But, isn't teasing the funnest part? ;) This was just something I had fun with.

Tease
Tessa

I guess I�ve been a bad girl
Teasing and tempting all these men
Making their emotions swirl
Saying later when they ask when

I admit that I do tease
That sooner or later I�ll give in
Their passions will be appeased
And that we�ll commit heavenly sin

I don�t know why I do it
Why I play with their weak hearts
And I know that I should quit it
Before I tear them all apart

But a part of me likes to play
And see how far they�ll go
How long they�ll let me get my way
Before they tell me no

Sometimes I let them get a taste
And give them a little kiss
But then I start to act real chaste
And tell them I must resist

I�ll hold their advances at bay
Using words to calm them down
I�m a good girl is what I say
And I do not sleep around

And what they do not know
Is they�ll never seal the deal
Their seeds they�ll never get to sow
In my secret playing field

Because if I get my way
And I can tell them what to do
There will never be a day
When their fantasies come true

So in the end, these nice guys
Will never get the chance
To find themselves between my thighs
And deep inside my pants

They�ll go along with my little game
I�ll walk on them with ease
Until I drive them so insane
And they learn I�m just a tease
