I used to be so proud of thinking I was such a liar.
In the covert world of romance, brother, I was just a try-er.
Woman was the enemy and victory the point
Where Id successfully knocked someones heart out of joint.
And its hilarious to think I thought by now Id have a wife,
But Ive always been so desperate to give away my life.
Then I just get lazy, Ive got everything assumed.
Sometimes theres nothing sexier than knowing that youre doomed.
And I bet you got a fright
When you took that girl to bed,
It was only your first night
When she grabbed your head and said,
Look at me, hey, look at me,
You dont love me, I can see.
You just want me for some fun,
I might as well be anyone.
I hope youll reap the benefits of our ten years apart.
When I tell you not give a fuck, dont take it to heart
– Try and be a gentleman and always tell the truth
– Im not just a hypocrite, Im jealous of your youth.
And I cant give you a lecture on how to be a man.
Ive not much advice to offer, no solid foolproof plan.
Even though I was so certain that its just a bit of fun
I soon got sick of micro-waving low-fat meals for one.
So when you ignore her call
And you just delete her text,
It might make you feel tall
As you make room for the next.
But look at me, hey, look at me,
You know I love you, obviously,
And I dont want to spoil your fun,
But you dont have to hurt someone.
