Surf & Turf

I end up doing a three point turn
Out of this match made in purgatory
Looking to make these grey eyes blue
Humiliated by the real world
We learnt to cover our genitalia
It's only damage, it can be rectified
Do you want to have an erroneous love life
If that be the case you'd better stick with me
From rubbing shoulders to rubbing noses
I'm rising up through the food chain
Why can't a dolphin swim on terra firma
Dousing gross attitudes
Your life ain't a journey
It's an itinerary
My coping mechanism
Kicks it from pillar to post now
Providing
A bleeding heart
Providing
A new memoir
Can you get done in for your guilty pleasures
And if you can will I ever get there?
It was characterised by furtive fucking
It was characterised by fantastic fucking
And because you got sick of desperation
And because I got tired of being below par

In Your Nature

You reached for my hand
It went downhill from there
You imagine me in a domestic setting
I imagine you as punctuation
All of the traits in your nature have become tragic
I don't want to deal every Sunday AM
With your arm clamping me to the bed
You're a sweet dull pain
Small 'c' conservative
I went ahead and slept with someone else on your birthday
You knew the truth but you daren't take me to task
All of the traits in your nature have become tragic
I don't want to deal every Sunday AM
With your arm clamping me to the bed
Such a dull pain reached for my hand
This is torture
This is torture
And you like it
You like torture
Our X and Y axes never met
We were only ever associates
You like torture
All of the traits in your nature have become tragic
I don't want to deal every Sunday AM
With your arm clamping me to the bed
Maybe someone else will be thrilled to be
Bored to death by you and you both can decay in love

Kiss Me Hardy
04:00
|

|
Look what they've gone and done
They've gone and knocked the load-bearing wall down
Parting shot after parting shot
Kismet makes me call you over sweet Hardy
And Hardy, I fought valiant for you
The least you could do is return the favour
Kiss me kiss me Hardy
And why do you only love me at night
And why do you only kiss me when you're high
Put it out for the other boys and girls but me
Fetch me the brandy Hardy

A Shot In The Dovetail
05:54
|

A shot for my unlucky one
Who wants to mainline lighter fluid
In a self-destructive haze
Am I really the only one
Who can take you to the needlepoint of your mind
With the tune of the second fiddle
I remember winning you over
And thinking that you were a sucker
What did you offer?
The pre-eminent heartthrob, baby
Beats its way to a condition
Why did you bother?
Don't you know how foolhardy you are?
Our spirits aren't kindred, you sap
It's trivial
We were two lonely puppies in the midst of November
I was weak and called you over
But you were weaker
It makes me shudder
All I get to hear is radio interference from your gob
You say: "Meet me Thursday by the Catford Cat, 5:30"
I say: "It was time laid waste"
A shot in the dovetail
My social circle, your social spiral
Not the urbane one you thought you were
You resent what you can't have
You are my yo-yo, my darling yo-yo
You will never have me as betrothed
I never asked to be your foil
How dare you try to put the reins on me
