Chorus 1
lust of the libertines
is really quite tame
It rages quite nice here beside you
and your lust for fame
well fames such a sinister game, i know
it could all end this way then
some things wont be the same
i'm just a face, and a name on a page
well i'll be soundly sleeping, i'll be soundly sleeping
i'll sleep right through that age
Verse
well i can deal with all the blood on my shoes
and the holes in my soul
my spirit is tainted all my tears are fainted
just as long as you
you dont forget to
uh-oh-oh
cut me on the wall
by the graffiti of all the the things i just couldn't say
shove me up the wall
oh my darling was the kind of loving now
you've left me in the family way again
Verse 2
as verse 1)
the dust on my tambourine
really can be explained
i need to shake it more often
shake away the blame
well fames such a sinister game
oh i know
the taste of goulash in your mouth as you stumble off stage
forget-me-nots bloom on this day then
but they wither with age
Chorus
Outro
same as verse)
