NATALIE REBECCA LOVEJOY
"Follow Me" (Victoria Woodhull's Song)
SINCE EVE AND ADAM LEFT THEIR GARDEN OF PERFECTION,
WE'VE TRIED TO GET BACK IN MIDST OF MISDIRECTION.
THE OFFICE THAT I SEEK HAS GOT US STARTED, SO TO SPEAK,
BUT IT'S GOT A LONG, LONG WAY TO GO.
OF MOST IMPORTANCE ARE THIS NATION'S CONVERSATIONS
REGARDING REGULATING SEXUAL RELATIONS.
I PROMISE YOU THIS FRICTION
IS THE CAUSE OF YOUR AFFLICTION,
AND THE FICTION GOES MUCH DEEPER THAN YOU KNOW.
IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE,
PLEASE HEED WHAT I SAY.
FORGET WHAT YOU'VE LEARNED;
THERE'S A BETTER WAY:
FOLLOW ME TO NEW VITALITY,
CONSTANT, GLORIOUS REALITY.
WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO LIVE FOREVER,
FULL AND FREE AS YOU'RE MEANT TO BE?
You’ve been taught that sexual union outside of the law is evil, and the temptation to engage in it the cause of destruction and death, but the destruction and death of what exactly? Who is harmed in the act of love and it’s physical expression? And what temptations are you avoiding? Temptation for joy? For vigor? Show me a man or woman who is a picture of physical health, and I will show you a person who enjoys healthy copulation. Of course, too often this is at expense of the other person in the partnership, and every woman who hears me knows this is true! They know that the demoralized and degenerate condition of female humanity is to be attributed to unsatisfactory sexual relations. So what do we do?
RIGHT OFF THE BAT, WE GOTTA EASE UP ON DIVORCES.
BOTH LOVE AND LUST SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO
RUN THEIR COURSES.
HUMANKIND'S CAPACITY FOR AMOROUS VORACITY
IS KEY, YOU SEE – SIT TIGHT, I'LL TELL YOU WHY.
But first -
TOO MANY MEN DON'T BRING THEIR WOMEN SATIATION,
AND, IF ELECTED, I WOULD MAKE IT LEGISLATION!
ALL MANNERS OF PREVENTION FOR AN UNWISHED FOR CONCEPTION
WOULD BE LEGAL AND IN LIMITLESS SUPPLY.
JEER ALL YOU WANT
AT THE LOVE THAT I MAKE,
BUT YOU’D MAKE IT, TOO,
IF YOU KNEW JUST WHAT’S AT STAKE.
FOLLOW ME TO EXALTATION,
SYNERGISTIC CONSUMMATION
WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO LIVE FOREVER,
FULL AND FREE AS YOU'RE MEANT TO BE?
FOLLOW ME TO PURE IMPURITY,
BOUNDLESS, RADIANT FUTURITY.
WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO LIVE FOREVER,
FULL AND FREE AS YOU'RE MEANT TO BE?
NOW YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING WHERE I GET MY EXPERTISE.
WELL, ALL MY LIFE I'VE BEEN A SEER; I’VE SEEN WHAT THE SEER SEES.
SO WHILE YOUR PREACHERS WOULD DAMN YOU TO THE SECOND LAYER OF HELL,
THE SPIRITS WOULD TAKE ME TO THE PLACE WHERE THEY DWELL.
AND I SAW A WORLD TURNED ON ITS HEAD,
WHERE THESE SO-CALLED VICES WERE VIRTUES INSTEAD!
WHERE PASSION WAS SACRED, AND OBLIGATION WAS SIN,
FOR ONE SLOWLY KILLED, WHILE ONE HEALED FROM WITHIN.
AND I KNEW IT WAS REAL, AND I KNEW IT WAS TRUE.
“VICTORIA!” THEY SAID, “WE'RE COUNTING ON YOU!
“TELL THEM THOSE WHOM THEY TRUST HAVE LED THEM ASTRAY.
THE PROBLEM OF LIFE AND DEATH IS AT PLAY.
AND WHEN WE SAY 'LIFE AND DEATH,' WE MEAN WHAT WE SAY!”
FOLLOW ME TO ACTUALITY,
NEW EXPANSES, IMMORTALITY.
WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO LIVE FOREVER?
FOLLOW ME TO REVELATION,
TANGIBLE REGENERATION.
WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO LIVE FOREVER,
FULL AND FREE AS YOU'RE MEANT TO BE?
FOLLOW ME TO TRUE SALVATION,
RAPTUROUS EMANCIPATION.
WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO LIVE FOREVER?
OH, DON'T YOU WANT TO LIVE FOREVER?
FOLLOW ME, AND LIVE FOREVER
FULL AND FREE AS YOU'RE MEANT TO BE!
