Unorthodox


Pandora! NO! do not open up that inbox!

you will release all evil and sin!

they will not forgive you for being unorthodox!

 

unless they do not figure out it is you, who has long luscious locks 

nevertheless, you should not be so tempted to wreak havoc on good men

Pandora! NO! do not open up that inbox!

 

the disease and despair will knock off their socks

recovery for mortals is unyielding and again…

they will not forgive you for being unorthodox!

 

looks and gifts will only get you so far, you will be cast out faster than a fox

if you do it, the hunt will begin.

Pandora! NO! do not open up that inbox!

 


mortals will not cease to find the culprit, they will look from blocks to blocks

to find the cold mortal who let out the wickedness within 

they will not forgive you for being unorthodox!

 

you were told not to because it would shock 

all the mortals and infect their skin

Pandora! NO! do not open up that inbox!

they will not forgive you for being unorthodox!
