Morning came to Stepney |
|
Like it was a curse |
|
The cramp that gripped her childhood |
|
Was getting worse |
|
Morning came to Stepney |
|
As if she were the night |
|
The darkness was receding |
|
Like her delight |
|
I'm smitten |
|
I've been bitten |
|
By you |
|
And though you lived in squalor |
|
Your comfort was immense |
|
Within the boho splendour |
|
Of your pretence |
|
Fidelity is safety |
|
But safety is a bore |
|
She wishes for perfection |
|
And nothing more |
|
I'm smitten |
|
I've been bitten |
|
By you |
|
You come on like it's me you like |
|
You come on like |
|
Come on, come on, come on... |
|
Like you've been smitten |
|
You've been bitten |
|
By me |
