She's in the corner dealing the cards
|
She looks around and round
|
And slowly puts her poker face on
|
She's such a tease, a tease
|
It's just about the one thing she knows
|
The only way to get the certain thing she already owns
|
You know she always gets them somehow by the way that she moves
|
It's how she's reaching the goal
|
The goal is finally scored
|
But she is never alone
|
She looks again at her watch
|
Watch her as she will pretend
|
That she is harmless and nice
|
...
|
|
You're slow to learn
|
That you can't win with her
|
No, no
|
You're slow to learn
|
That you can't win with her
|
No, no
|
|
She's baffled but she swears she's secure
|
The insecurity has gone and gotten the best of her
|
The best has yet to come
|
We know just how the story will end
|
We know about the drinks, the smokes, and half an hour boyfriends
|
You think they really love you
|
Loving in this case is the cure
|
The cure is never really present when you're speaking with her
|
It's really getting to her ...
|
And are you missing the note?
|
The note is C flat, but G sharp
|
She's sharper but she don't blow
|
She's sinking to the bottom
|
|
You're slow to learn
|
That you can't win with her
|
No, no
|
You're slow to learn
|
That you can't win with her
|
No, no
|
|
Staring at a form that bleeds
|
This scene is dark and dreary
|
Tears are overflowing to me
|
Me of the ordinary girl
|
But she always knew that she was
|
She wasn't ordinary
|
Special was the meaning of course
|
How they would describe her
|
|
...
|
The end is coming closer
|
Looking, and she's ready to go
|
Let's go take lots of pictures
|
Maybe some would sell in the end
|
Turn into something that will end up being quite ...
|
My god, does no one love you?
|
|
You're slow to learn
|
That you can't win with her
|
You're slow to learn
|
That you can't win with her
|
Oh, oh
|
You're slow to learn
|
That you can't win with her
|
You're slow to learn
|
That you can't win with her
|
