The Age Of The Understatement |
| Decided to sneak off away from your stomach |
| And try your pulse |
| They captured what seemed all unknowing and candid |
| But they suspected it was false |
| She’s playful |
| The boring would warn you, be careful of her brigade |
| In order to tame this relentless marauder |
| Move away from the parade |
| And she was walking on the tables in the glasshouse |
| Endearingly bedraggled in the wind |
| Subtle in her method of seduction |
| Twenty little tragedies begin |
| And she would throw a feather boa in the road |
| If she thought that it would set the scene |
| Unfittingly dipped into your companions |
| Enlighten them to make you seethe |
| And there’s affection to rent |
| The age of the understatement |
| Before the attraction ferments |
| Kiss me properly and pull me apart |
| Affection to rent |
| The age of the understatement |
| Before this attraction ferments |
| Kiss me properly and pull me apart |
| Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah |
| Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah |
| And my fingers scratch at my hair |
| Before my mind can get too reckless |
| The idea of seeing you here |
| Is enough to make the sweat go cold |
| Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh |
| Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh |
