You'd die just to be poetry
Oh so woe is me
[So woe is me]
C'est la vie to pleasantries
They're the best laid plan for tragedy
You're the queen of the dead scene
You're the queen of the back seat
You've got your face on tv
And the cover of the magazines
Smile baby, I've got the headache that you gave me
And I'm bound and determined to make a woman out of you
Smile for me 'cause kiss the child for me honey
One night, one chance
What was I supposed to do?
What was I supposed to do?
I'll be home soon with more than time on my hands
I'll be home soon
I was ready to go, but you wanted to dance
I was ready to go, but you wanted to dance
A brown bottle serenade, to send you quietly to your grave
[And hey I hope you sleep well]
So I'll say what you would say 'All is well for what sells'
You're the queen of the bar scene
You're the queen of the back seat
You've got your face on tv
And the cover of the magazines
Smile baby, I've got the headache that you gave me
And I'm bound and determined to make a woman out of you
Smile for me 'cause kiss the child for me honey
One night, one chance
What was I supposed to do?
I'll be home soon with more than time on my hands
[I'll be home soon]
I was ready to go, but you wanted to dance
[I was ready to go]
I'll be home soon with more than time on my hands
[Woah, woah]
I was ready to go, but you wanted to dance
[Woah, woah] [x2]
