I thought it was you and your optimist's view of the clock | |
And how it's always another day | |
Just after twelve o'clock's struck | |
You said "now I only want you so I don't have to promise" | |
But tiny children in grown-up clothes whispered all the crimes of paris | |
You're not the girl next-door or a girl from france | |
Or the cigarette-girl in the sizzle hot-pants | |
All the words of love seem cruel and crass | |
When you're tough and transparent as armoured glass | |
You're everywhere girl in an everyday mess | |
Who'll pay for the crimes of Paris | |
I heard that you fell for the "hell or to hammersmith blues" | |
In the tiny torn up pieces of his mind he's irresistible too | |
Now it's hard to say now if he's only stupid or smart | |
When he crawled through the door | |
And poured out more of his creeping-jesus heart | |
You're not the girl next-door or a girl from france | |
Or the cigarette-girl in the sizzle hot-pants | |
All the words of love seem cruel and crass | |
When you're tough and transparent as armoured glass | |
You're everywhere girl in an everyday mess | |
Who'll pay for the crimes of Paris | |
And it's all here and now | |
She hit him with that paper-weight eiffel tower | |
And I tried to hold on to you but I don't know how | |
And I find it hard to swallow good advice | |
Like going down three times to only come up twice | |
She's so convenient, he's always stiff as hair-lacquer | |
It's hard to discover now he's in love with her | |
It was her way of getting her own back | |
You never did anything she couldn't do on her own | |
You're as good as your word and that's no good to her | |
You'd better leave that kitten alone | |
You're not the girl next-door or a girl from france | |
Or the cigarette-girl in the sizzle hot-pants | |
All the words of love seem cruel and crass | |
When you're tough and transparent as armoured glass | |
You're everywhere girl in an everyday mess | |
Who'll pay for the crimes of Paris |
