Lyrics
There's no reason to be bored when
A face like yours is adored by all men
You're making up for lost time
And your best ideas were mine
At the age of twenty-seven
You realised your bed was empty
A child is what I need
But your face is all I see
Those bruises don't betray any violence on my part
You've taken my possessions, you're dressing like a tart
But it's miserable and sluttish to be acting like I do in front of you
No matter how you try, you'll never be as cheap as me
When people have got no one else, they can always sleep with me
And no one else could be a better friend to you than me
And no one else could be a better friend to you than me
It's not love, it just smells like it
The scent of summer is so exciting
No matter how you brush your teeth
I can still smell the nicotine
And there's no face I'd rather kiss than
Your sweet face, oh, when it's smiling
I loved you until you were bedded
And our parents still talk of a wedding
Those bruises don't betray any violence on my part
You've taken my possessions, we're both dressed up like tarts
But it's miserable and sluttish to be acting like I do in front of you
No matter how you try, you'll never be as cheap as me
When people have got no one else, they can always sleep with me
And no one else could be a better friend to you than me
And no one else could be a better friend to you than me
