Half Hearted Get (Is Second Best) |
I’ve only got one real fan |
She is not woman, she is not man |
She’s got her own coat of arms and her tartan and her own clan |
Her clan surpasses beauty |
always love and never duty |
A beauty that feels so alien to this land |
These feelings should be censored they should be banned |
But when you put a porn-star in these hands |
I’m the 6 month old with the keys to his own pram |
You got this straight to play the fool |
Miss out nursery, miss out school |
And gave the bullet train option to this old abandoned tram |
How do you make so special look like dross |
How do you make expensive look budget cost |
If it’s power to the workers then you are the boss |
You make bluebells look like moss |
Gave a second coat to gloss |
And made Lennon’s little Ono look like dross |
If prostitution was not illegal |
you’d make cheap sex look so regal |
Make the hottest little joint in town look like frost |
The famous they get stalkers, they get pests |
But I’d rather get a bullet right through my chest |
All that Lennon could imagine |
was not you, was just a fraction |
and all half-hearted get is second best |
