The Pornographer Songtext
A lost love of mine
Who gentlemen objectify
I've seen the price and Chirst, I sympathize
But then, what was I?
Whose charmless arms you slept inside
Who prays one day we make this same mistake twice
Mistake twice

I've learned all my lines and marked all the cues
So boys stand aside, before I've thought this through

I've been over this a thousand times
The gist of this I've thrice survised
But hard as I've tried I'm helpless to describe

'Cause they stood idle
With what's left of these looks of mine
Tone deaf and dumb my tongue to occupy
Occupy

And I learned all my lines and marked all the cues
So boys stand aside before I've thought this through

So love's come to town now
You know what I'm obliged to do
Cruel to be kind, but I'm still fond of you

Because you're just like us
Who tarnish everything we touch
Hands out in front with blood up to the cuffs And I've seen enough

I know my lines and marked all the cues
So boys, stand aside before I've thought this through
Through, yes through
