Hollow Jubilee |
| How my fingers found you so quickly in the dark |
| Hardly strictly business, speaking from the heart |
| On the bathroom sink, I lifted up your skirt |
| How was I to know just how badly I’d get hurt? |
| Everyone was talking backwards, drowning on their feet |
| I noticed how the rose was clenched too tightly in your teeth |
| We were spoiling for a fight, the special way we’d flirt |
| I dragged you to the garden, we did it in the dirt |
| You pretend to be you, I’ll pretend to be me |
| And I’ll see you at the hollow jubilee |
| In a post-orgasmic haze, sometimes some truth escapes |
| When the pressure is relieved, one can relive the better days |
| When we were as one, you thought I was too young |
| Now sometimes you feel something else when the chill of evening comes |
| You pretend to be you, I’ll pretend to be me |
| Hiding at the hollow jubilee |
| Our loves lies in repose and everybody knows |
| You weave the fabric of your life into your onstage clothes |
| I always pictured you and me growing old disgracefully |
| Now I see the club’s sold out and there’s no room for me |
| There’s a blindfold for you and a mirror for me |
| Hanging at the hollow jubilee |
| So, you pretend to be you, I’ll pretend to be me |
| When I see you at the hollow jubilee |
