|
Cheap cut satin and bad perfume |
|
Showtime is almost here |
|
Tears stop by your strength |
|
Caught you laughing up your sleeve |
|
Sniggering in your beer |
|
Seen the bottom of a lot of glasses |
|
But he's never seen love so near |
|
He'd seen love get so expensive |
|
But he'd never seen love so dear |
|
Now I know that you're all king horse |
|
Between tenderness and brute force |
|
Now I know that you're all king horse |
|
Between tenderness and brute force |
|
She can turn a pot of sixpence |
|
In the mouth and trouser set |
|
Hit the till, ring the bill, never spill a sip |
|
And still she knows the kind of tip |
|
She is going to get |
|
A lot of loose exchanges |
|
Precious little respect |
|
But if someone else is weakened |
|
That's the best that you can expect |
|
Now I know that you're all king horse |
|
Between tenderness and brute force |
|
Now I know that you're all king horse |
|
Between tenderness and brute force |
|
So fine knit a fabric |
|
So fine a fabrication |
|
From comic books to tragic |
|
To the art of conversation |
|
Meanwhile back in some secluded spot |
|
He says, "Will you please" and she says, "Stop" |
|
If I ever lose this good thing that |
|
I gotI never want to hear the song you dedicated tonight |
|
You see I knew that song so long before we met |
|
That it means much more than it might |
|
Now I know that you're all king horse |
|
Between tenderness and brute force |
|
Now I know that you're all king horse |
|
Between tenderness and brute force |
|
Now I know that you're all king horse |
|
Between tenderness and brute force |
|
Now I know that you're all king horse |
|
Between tenderness and brute force |
