|
I won't send roses |
|
Or hold the door |
|
I won't remember |
|
Which dress you wore |
|
My heart is too much in control |
|
The lack of romance in my soul |
|
Will turn you grey, kid |
|
So stay away, kid |
|
Forget my shoulder |
|
When you're in need |
|
Forgetting birthdays |
|
Is guaranteed |
|
And should I love you, you would be |
|
The last to know |
|
I won't send roses |
|
And roses suit you so |
|
My pace is frantic |
|
My temper's cross |
|
With words romantic |
|
I'm at a loss |
|
I'd be the first one to agree |
|
That I'm preoccupied with me |
|
And it's inbred, kid |
|
So keep your head, kid |
|
In me you'll find things |
|
Like guts and nerve |
|
But not the kind of things |
|
That you deserve |
|
And so while there's a fighting chance |
|
Just turn and go |
|
I won't send roses |
|
And roses suit you so. |
