《The Exception》歌词

时长： 04:25

In a paparazzi photograph she was stepping from a car[00:00:00]

The tired eyes betrayed the smile of the faded singing star[00:00:07]

At the publishers reception on the launching of her book[00:00:14]

She told the grimy details and the toll the details took[00:00:20]

The tours applause awards of course[00:00:27]

But as the years went by [00:00:30]

Those fundamental things still applied[00:00:33]

Oh but she thought she'd be the exception[00:00:40]

Oh yes she thought she'd be the exception[00:00:42]

But don't we all think we're the exception[00:00:46]

Sometimes sometimes[00:00:49]

The workaholic millionaire and his pretty younger wife[00:00:56]

Had everything there was out there in the ad mans perfect life[00:01:03]

But she left him for the milkman and then moved into his flat[00:01:09]

Everyone said silly girl to do a thing like that[00:01:16]

The house the cars the credit cards but he didn't ask her why[00:01:22]

He knows that there's some things even cash can't buy[00:01:29]

Oh yes he thought he'd be the exception[00:01:36]

Oh yes he thought he'd be the exception[00:01:39]

But don't we all think we're the exception[00:01:42]

Sometimes sometimes[00:01:45]

If a handout to the hungry and the homeless[00:01:53]

Is a fiver in the fickle hand of fate[00:01:59]

Does it mean we'll be there on the guest list[00:02:05]

When we get to heaven's gate[00:02:13]

No pain no gain that's what they're saying and it's hard to disagree[00:02:32]

But I thought somehow they weren't including me[00:02:38]

Oh but I thought I'd be the exception[00:02:45]

Oh yes I thought I'd be the exception[00:02:48]

But don't we all think we're the exception[00:02:51]

Sometimes sometimes[00:02:55]

Sometimes sometimes[00:03:02]

Woo[00:03:08]

Sometimes sometimes woo[00:03:18]
