the day madonna almost killed me

madonna sings
in the background
as i ponder jumping
from the 11th floor of pain

her voice is getting clearer
her lyrics getting louder
as if taunting me
to jump off the ledge

while people below form
a moshpit under a suffering rockstar
they scream and howl and beg
for an encore performance

i will oblige
to the demands of the rabid faithful
so i close my eyes and prepare
for my final stage dive

but maddona fades into silence
so i retreat from the brink of madness
and decide to listen to another
song not sung by her
