Cruel Brunette |
Shoes at the door and a colour coded kitchen |
Evidently very house proud |
With a hiccup and a wink |
And your dish in the sink |
You’ve declared that dinner is over |
Now we’re left with the decision |
Is it us we both envision |
We’ll decide when we get upstairs |
As mush as it’s a sure thing |
I still feel there’s a chance |
We could end up just doing dares |
And so, |
Armed with a conviction |
That betrays me in a second |
I lie with an excuse |
I can’t believe I’ll get away with |
That I don’t like driving in the dark |
It’s hard to tell between the sky and the bark |
But the offer of a taxi |
Leaves it all in burning tatters |
My belt was on the floor already |
But again that hardly matters |
As nice as it was of her to offer to pay |
The real payoff would only come if I stay |
Sad songs and waltzes and yesterday’s clothes |
Are useless to me now |
Sad sonf and waltzes and yesterday’s clothes |
Are useless to me now |
Hope flutters on underneath closed doors |
This spiralling romance a real tour de force |
I screamed weak whimper of stuttering protests |
Callously turned away, sudden lack of interest |
Swinging the light I’m begging for confession |
A tight lipped jab about a lady’s own discretion |
Sad songs and waltzes and yesterday’s clothes |
Are useless to me now |
Sad sonf and waltzes and yesterday’s clothes |
Are useless to me now |
After what seemed like a cliché |
I feel robbed of a morning |
No akward searching for toothpaste |
Or a housemate scorning |
Why do women act like they’re doing men a favour |
It’s not like they can live without relationships either |
Sad songs and waltzes and yesterday’s clothes |
Are useless to me now |
Sad sonf and waltzes and yesterday’s clothes |
Are useless to me now |
I live in a huff of supremme court disgrace |
Sitting on the front step doing up my face, |
In the crush to get in I tore them off rather quickly |
Ridding them completely of their plastic nobility. |
In a moment I’ll not call madness just yet |
I engraved on her letterbox cruel brunette |
