Weak as I am

Every time I went singing, or in my music appreciation class, the teachers, directors, professors etc. would remark on the structure of the opus being studied. All of them would equal it to an orgasm, basically saying that it would build up, explode, and then subside.
A friend remarked a few days ago that her record is 70 orgasms in one night.
If you listen to the melody of “Weak as I am” you’ll notice that it builds and keeps on going, hitting the same phrase eight times, before exploding and finishing.
This is for multiorgasmic singers.


Skunk Anansie


Lost in time I can't count the words
I said when I thought they went unheard
All of those harsh thoughts so unkind
'cos I wanted you

And now I sit here I'm all alone
So here sits a bloody mess, tears fly home
A circle of angels, deep in war
'cos I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I'm no ones fool
Weak as I am

So what am I now I'm love last home
I'm all of the soft words I once owned
If I opened my heart, there'd be no space for air
'cos I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I'm no ones fool
Weak as I am

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you

Weak as I am
Weak as I am
Weak as I am
Weak as I am, am, am

Weak as I am
Am I to much for you
Weak as I am
Am I to much for you
Weak as I am
Am I to much for you
Weak as I am
Am I to much for you
Weak as I am
