To extinguish the fire in Marilou's ass
One night no longer able to take the jealousy
I ran to the hallway of the hotel to take from its mount
The fire extinguisher
Brandishing the cylinder
I strike - paff! - and Marilou starts moaning
From her dented cranium escapes vermilion blood
Identical to the red that bleeds from the appliance
She performs a final somersault onto the linoleum, a final tremor
I push the nozzle
The body of Marilou disappears under the foam
One night no longer able to take the jealousy
I ran to the hallway of the hotel to take from its mount
The fire extinguisher
Brandishing the cylinder
I strike - paff! - and Marilou starts moaning
From her dented cranium escapes vermilion blood
Identical to the red that bleeds from the appliance
She performs a final somersault onto the linoleum, a final tremor
I push the nozzle
The body of Marilou disappears under the foam

Marilou rests under the snow
And I say to myself and I say again
All of these drawings I did as a child
I’ve been able to preserve them fresh and new
From my Lou in the comics strips I
Scanned the speech bubbles
When I saw myself excluded from their games
Erotic, I made a disease
All rights of reproduction prohibited
Being naive I thought that protected me
The rights of the Opera Mundi copyright
Oh my Lou I had to cut it short
Your existence
This is how Marilou fell asleep under the snow
Carbon dioxide fire extinguisher
And I say to myself and I say again
All of these drawings I did as a child
I’ve been able to preserve them fresh and new
From my Lou in the comics strips I
Scanned the speech bubbles
When I saw myself excluded from their games
Erotic, I made a disease
All rights of reproduction prohibited
Being naive I thought that protected me
The rights of the Opera Mundi copyright
Oh my Lou I had to cut it short
Your existence
This is how Marilou fell asleep under the snow
Carbon dioxide fire extinguisher

I think you might like something like Billion Dollar Babies by Alice Cooper, it's quite different to his straight rock stuff.

Marilou
Marilou
Les parasites de radio poux
Ont brouillé mes messages
Fou, que j'étais de toi
Marilou!
Marilou, Marilou
The little playboy bunny
Gnaws on my vegetable skull
Shoeshine boy
Oh Marilou, little cabbage
Who rolled me between her fingers like a Caporal (a brand of tobacco)
Sucked me like a lozenge
She knew the cabbage dialect - pou pou pidou
You know, my Lou, in this white clinic
Neuro-psychiatric
Through patience and inaction,
I was able to train up a hanneton (a type of beetle)
On my head a helipad, a heli-beetle
Its golden elytra (beetle carapace)
Closes the passenger compartment
Tilts its adjustable S.O.S. antennas
But backside torpedo! The moths fluttering with distress
Intercept in flight my distress signals - tough luck!
Marilou
Marilou
Radio-lice parasites scrambled my messages
That I was madly in love with you, Marilou
