Just Another Case Of Bad Intentions

"i want to help you see what's inside yourself"
that's what my therapist said the first time we talked
i wanted her to help me all right
i wanted her to help me see what was under her clothes
just another case of bad intentions

she thought she was going to make me something i'm not
and i thought i was going to make it with her
"you seem to be preoccupied" she inquired
i was-i was fantasizing about exploring her dark secrets
just another case of bad intentions

like high school and that english teacher
hell i failed the class on purpose
so i could spend another semester
wanking off instead of doing homework
just another case of bad intentions

ten years after high school i found her
drinking at a local bar
the next morning she gave me a c and told me
"that paper was ten years overdue"
just another case of bad intentions

my therapist thinks i "have serious issues" regarding certain "issues" that i shouldn't discuss here
