She sat on the pavement | |
As I pulled in the drive | |
Wearing leopard skin velvet | |
Shiny black eyes"She looks like a sleeper" | |
Said my wife at the time | |
She had curls like | |
DelilahAnd a smile like the sun | |
She held my poor corpse | |
Like she'd never be done | |
And the caption in my mind said"This is the one" | |
But I'm strong and | |
I'm disciplined | |
And I avoided her for years' | |
Til one night, as usual | |
With my heart full of tears | |
A hand touched my back | |
And she was standing right there | |
And then I felt the luxury of her | |
I felt the luxury of her | |
I felt the luxury of her | |
I felt the luxury, whispering, whispering | |
Now, I'll try hard to tell things just like they is | |
How my life was a desert before she came in | |
And wrecked it and ripped it and rubbed my nerves thin | |
How I liked to see her little feet pad around the house | |
The way she curled up quietly on the couch | |
I can still see her in my mind that way, now | |
But I felt the luxury of her, | |
I felt the luxury of her, | |
I felt the luxury of her | |
Well, time went by quickly | |
And her confidence grew | |
And she wanted this and that | |
And she wanted those too | |
And she wouldn't shut up | |
And one day, | |
I just blew up | |
Now, she's in the hospital | |
For the second time | |
Maybe she'll die, maybe | |
I'll cryTherapists would say"You're in denial" | |
But love became inconvenient | |
Love became a literal drag | |
Very bad for business | |
I'd be better off a fag | |
She's a model de sport | |
That I can't afford' | |
Cause I'm a practical | |
AmericanFrom the | |
Middle-West | |
And I can piss on a grave | |
While welcoming guests | |
If cold's what | |
I amI'm cold 'till the end | |
And I felt the luxury of her | |
I felt the luxury of her | |
Now, I'm gonna continue walking | |
In the modern world | |
Which justifies every | |
Egotistical perversion | |
With scientific talk | |
And new ways to walk | |
But I'll remember the religion | |
She became to me | |
And the other person | |
I could have been | |
So, for now, | |
I'll say so long | |
I gotta go do wrong | |
I gotta go do wrong | |
I felt the luxury | |
I felt the luxury | |
I felt the luxury, luxury | |
Luxury, luxury, luxury |
