Basement Kiss |
| Lucy Grace can’t show her face |
| Down in the North End Road |
| For in Belgravia |
| Rumours have been whispered |
| And suggestions have been made |
| Did you sell your friends out |
| When the heat got too intense? |
| You say you like the danger |
| But it’s only a pretence |
| You say you need the money |
| When everybody knows you can |
| Always fall back on your inheritance |
| Did you bruise your arms on those false alarms? |
| Did you bruise your pride on his smile so wide? |
| Only fingertips from forbidden bliss |
| Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss? |
| Who’s that sneaking round the door? |
| You can’t come here no more |
| Can’t you go home again? |
| She used to sit alone for hours |
| Spend her evenings watering dried flowers |
| When her mother came to stay |
| And finally went to bed |
| Lucy Grace was in the front room |
| Shooting through your head |
| She tried to take your breath away |
| And give you something else instead |
| Next year she’ll serve her function |
| In that Audrey Hepburn hat |
| It still won’t serve her much |
| But she’ll get over that |
| She’ll be pale and feign indifference |
| As they’re handing out the prizes |
| Spilling Daddy’s pearls of wisdom |
| And her ugly sister’s tranquilizers |
| Why were you so tardy putting up your guard? |
| When you hurt so easily and you try so hard |
| Did you bruise your arms on those false alarms? |
| Did you bruise your pride on his face so snide? |
| Only fingertips from forbidden bliss |
| Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss? |
