Belladonna

She greets me when I come home
All I have to do is plug in
Belladonna waits for me all alone
Just wants me to sin

She's all covered in ink
And has that cute little gap
I'm all searching for that link
The one where you snap

Belladonna don't leave me
Don't think I can face someone real
Belladonna can't see me
But she knows my deal

Belladonna you're my escape
Because I can't escape myself
Belladonna you're safe
With you I won't hurt myself

I know one day you'll be gone
Out of my head, off of my screen
And I'll search the world long
for my Belladonna, nowhere to be seen

Is Belladonna your cat?

No, think "Pictures of Lilly."

whoa...I think this is more about Rambler's desire for a nice dark- skinned housekeeper to take care of his loneliness and iron his shirts. I'm thinking Esther Rolle. She played Thema Evans on 'Good Times' and Florida on 'Maude'? Yeah, she's got that 'gap' in her front teeth. and the 'snap'...she could snap. Remember? Florida was jet black ('covered in ink'). And whatever became of dear old Esther? 'Nowhere to be seen'. Of course, the nature of the housekeeper fantasy 'isn't real'. Nope. The man needs a maid.
