lyrics

LACQUER
Lacquer me with flattery
And lack subtlety in your repartee tonight
We’re both part of this parody
I don’t expect to see any honesty in your eyes

You don’t you don’t you don’t
You don’t need to know me
Focus on the girl you’ve got superimposed over me
I won’t mind
I might even sympathise
You might even chance to find
I know exactly how you feel

So tell me about the last book you’ve read
Don’t look I haven’t heard a single word you’ve said
Still got this old sad song
Reeling through my head tonight

You don’t you don’t you don’t
You don’t need to know me
Focus on the girl you’ve got superimposed over me
I won’t mind
I might even sympathise
You might even chance to find
I know exactly how you feel

You might even chance to find
And you might chance to find
And if you do chance to find
I won’t tell you how I feel

So lacquer me with flattery…..
