lyrics

My darling dirtied up the water
And threw the baby out too
My Julie Christie but with darker hair
my best Bogarde just for you
It’s my love to love who I like

Me and my darling played in water
nothing like your skin on black
I come home
the black cat outside my house
she won’t shut up about you

I’m running on your time
and I’m dancing a getaway
with no real movement
dancing don’t move minds
and there’s nothing to dance about
anyway
I didn’t, ever
get to dance with you

Darling we could’ve had a daughter
with the prettiest of noses
my nose
knows the sneaky way around your hairline
you’ve broken everything I knew

It’s my love to love who I like
cooking up some awful sounds
to try
and win you
footholds in my pride
and you're climbing all over me
my match, my winner
you’ve got me bang to rights



my darling jumped into the water
She’s washing off her dirty bones
my bones
definitely want your bones back
