Lataevia — Cupid's Sting

Sphynx

The supplied cover artwork for Sphynx, from the Cupid's Sting song-page master.

The cover plate is published from the song-page master. The master also paints a play badge onto the corner of the cover; it is left as supplied rather than retouched, and the real play control below is disabled with its reason.

Not available. There is no audio file anywhere in the supplied material — not one, in any archive or in this site — so there is nothing for this control to play. It is shown because the artwork paints it, and it is disabled because playing nothing while appearing to play something would be a lie.

Lyrics

Reproduced exactly as the supplied lyric document has it, including the document’s own title, author and date lines, its line order, its capitalisation and its repetitions. Nothing is completed, corrected, paraphrased or added.

SphynxBy: Rick Lofton1/15/209

You had sphynx, an empressYou had a Queen, and now you’re aloneYou had a bad bitch,Now you have no bitchVacant is ya thrownMy new man and he saved meHe’ll judge you, if you judge meI was out of your league And for startersI was temporarily yours I’m gone, I’m goneYou had a sphynx … But not no moreKissed by an Angel,You had a Queen, An empressI’m gone

Though you’re a gambling man I had my heart on the table Consider me all inConsider me down,Cupid’s odds screwed you Apparently they screwed me too Cuz I was in love with you I rolled the dice on youI bet it all, for you Tried to beat the odds, with youI risked it all, for you I would’ve died for youI've lost it all for you I went the mile for youCouldn’t beat the odds, with youFinally came to my senses Embodied by the wise one Guided to the obvious 

Chorus

Dealer preach him a sermonTell him the newsTell him he lost a riderA solid providerTrustworthy confiderTo the death type of fighterIt don’t get no higherThey don’t come no badderIt’s a fluke you had herTake ya losses to the chinThere’s no going back whenTrust is broken hope is lostI was naive I was in loveA true believerYou … Played the fieldYou ... Pushed your luck You ... Messed it upI was for us, I grew from us Finally came to my senses Dealer preach him a sermonYou burned it, burned it

(X2) I rolled the dice on youI bet it all, for you I would’ve died for youTried to beat the odds, with youI risked it all, for you I've lost it all for you (X2)

Chorus
