Cruel Brunette - The Strypes[00:00:00]
Shoes at the door and a colour coded kitchen[00:00:13]
Evidently very house proud[00:00:17]
With a hiccup and a wink[00:00:22]
And your dish in the sink[00:00:24]
You've declared that dinner is over[00:00:26]
Now we're left with the decision[00:00:31]
Is it us we both envision[00:00:34]
We'll decide when we get upstairs[00:00:36]
As mush as it's a sure thing[00:00:41]
I still feel there's a chance[00:00:43]
We could end up just doing dares[00:00:45]
And so,[00:00:57]
Armed with a conviction[00:00:57]
That betrays me in a second[00:00:59]
I lie with an excuse[00:01:00]
I can't believe I'll get away with[00:01:02]
That I don't like driving in the dark[00:01:03]
It's hard to tell between the sky and the bark[00:01:07]
But the offer of a taxi[00:01:10]
Leaves it all in burning tatters[00:01:11]
My belt was on the floor already[00:01:13]
But again that hardly matters[00:01:15]
As nice as it was of her to offer to pay[00:01:16]
The real payoff would only come if I stay[00:01:19]
Sad songs and waltzes and yesterday's clothes[00:01:24]
Are useless to me now Are useless to me now[00:01:27]
Sad sonf and waltzes and yesterday's clothes[00:01:33]
Are useless to me now Are useless to me now[00:01:36]
Hope flutters on underneath closed doors[00:01:43]
This spiralling romance a real tour de force[00:01:46]
I screamed weak whimper of stuttering protests[00:01:49]
Callously turned away, sudden lack of interest[00:01:52]
Swinging the light I'm begging for confession[00:01:55]
A tight lipped jab about a lady's own discretion[00:01:58]
Sad songs and waltzes and yesterday's clothes[00:02:03]
Are useless to me now Are useless to me now[00:02:06]
Sad sonf and waltzes and yesterday's clothes[00:02:13]
Are useless to me now Are useless to me now[00:02:16]
After what seemed like a cliché[00:02:31]
I feel robbed of a morning[00:02:33]
No akward searching for toothpaste[00:02:34]
Or a housemate scorning[00:02:36]
Why do women act like they're doing men a favour[00:02:38]
It's not like they can live [00:02:41]
without relationships either[00:02:41]
Sad songs and waltzes and yesterday's clothes[00:02:46]
Are useless to me now[00:02:49]
Sad sonf and waltzes and yesterday's clothes[00:02:52]
Are useless to me now useless to me now[00:02:55]
useless to me now[00:02:57]
useless to me now[00:03:00]
I live in a huff of supremme court disgrace[00:03:21]
Sitting on the front step doing up my face,[00:03:24]
In the crush to get in I tore [00:03:26]
them off rather quickly[00:03:28]
Ridding them completely of their plastic nobility.[00:03:29]
In a moment I'll not call madness just yet[00:03:33]
I engraved on her letterbox cruel brunette[00:03:36]
