John Cale - Magic & Lies lyrics
[John Cale - Magic & Lies lyrics]
Look at that old man with the broken shoes
He could tell you stories he
Knows how to lose
Look at that sweet thing packaged so tight
She does things her own way
Knows the wrong from right
But there's one big difference now
She does anything she wants
And every night is midnight as they come
To take her through the door
Of suffering as it is her own way
Out no matter how she feels her day is
Can you see madame breaking all the rules
She does things her own way
She's nobody's fool
Yes, she finds things easier now
She does everything she says
They climb up on her doorstep and
Rock around the clock tonight
And rock around again in spite of
Everything she'd done she is forgotten
Look at that young man with the tired eyes
He believes in magic, he believes in lies
He could tell you stories he
Knows how to lose
Look at that sweet thing packaged so tight
She does things her own way
Knows the wrong from right
But there's one big difference now
She does anything she wants
And every night is midnight as they come
To take her through the door
Of suffering as it is her own way
Out no matter how she feels her day is
Can you see madame breaking all the rules
She does things her own way
She's nobody's fool
Yes, she finds things easier now
She does everything she says
They climb up on her doorstep and
Rock around the clock tonight
And rock around again in spite of
Everything she'd done she is forgotten
Look at that young man with the tired eyes
He believes in magic, he believes in lies
