She Looked Like Hell ©12-1-2024 Robert George


Christmas Eve in Dulles Airport
Another delayed flight
Each time they lost his luggage
Was a thorn in Adam’s side
Then she walked in that Chili’s
Turnin’ ev’ry head
Scarlet dress and auburn hair
Fingernails a fiery red

She looked like hell
Her heart was a bottomless pit
Anyone who wasn’t careful
Would fall into it
No one knows
Where temptation will strike
And she looked like
She looked like
She looked like hell

She sat down beside him
With a snakeskin purse
And she cast an icy shadow
Darker than a hearse
She sipped an appletini
And she kissed him with her eyes
She spoke in secret whispers
But all he heard were lies

She looked like hell
Her heart was a bottomless pit
Anyone who wasn’t careful
Would fall into it
No one knows
Where temptation will strike
And she looked like
She looked like
She looked like hell


She showed him a selfish kingdom
But he never saw a thing
Cos the light of faith reflected
Off his wedding ring

She looked like hell
Her heart was a bottomless pit
Anyone who wasn’t careful
Anyone who wasn’t prayerful
Would fall into it
No one knows
Where temptation will strike
And she looked like
She looked like
She looked like hell

Better stay away from her
That’s for damn sure…
