Your exit, her entry
All the kings, queens and gentry
X rated or G
Its really the angle at which you observe
Forgetting to remember
That it is perturbed
Living with disturbia long enough
And it will all become disturbingly normal
Throw the corpse in a burlap sack
And we will dress it formal
Whether it be lengthy or short
It all just depends
Misinterpret the interpreter
And it all starts to taste like lemons
Nothing really makes a difference
Like the dying painfully of the bends
Sprawl across the ground
roll in the dirt
Hold on to the grass
To keep from flying off
The face of the earth

I like the idea of how things are viewed dependant on differing perspectives in this piece. The wording gives full realisation of this idea.
