You're a waitress who hung out
|
With the customers too long now
|
It seems the curtain's closed
|
And the lights are on
|
I guess there's going to be no encore for us
|
You're a mystery in the street
|
and the men would pay good currency
|
And you let them down so softly
|
For an ounce of your cruelty, you would
|
|
Leave your house keys in my door
|
And they'd fit because you want them to
|
Such coincidence, it always befalls you
|
It gets so far beyond comedy that
|
|
How can I play that part when I'm jogging in your slow lane
|
now ?
|
Could you just have a heart ?
|
Give me an ounce of your cruelty, could you
|
|
There's a whistle in the street
|
There's a night so cloaked with secrecy
|
But I'm keeping my nose clean
|
I've drawn the curtains closed
|
Until it's summer and these crickets wake me
|
|
And your breath will light the dawn
|
But you'll wake up with a thorn in your side
|
Hey it's only me, you should turn it around
|
And wake me up with your cruelty
|
|
How can I play that part when I'm jogging in your slow lane
|
now ?
|
Could you just have a heart ?
|
Give me an ounce of your cruelty
|
How can I play that part when I'm jogging in your slow lane
|
now
|
Could you just have a heart ?
|
|
Give me an ounce of your cruelty
|
And you'll leave it alone and let it rot
|
An ounce of your cruelty means
|
You'll stay at home
|
And deprive me of your pleasure
|
Hey could you do that ?
|
|
No way around it
|
