[Johnny Foreigner - Le Schwing lyrics]
She never picks up on the first ring
She leaves me hanging at the station
With the tourists and the touts
And I light another cigarette and
I wait with my doubts
And my doubts are all I have
As the summer burns the parks
And I'm scratching for an answer cause
I know she's going to ask
About the future that we're failing
And how we start a fire from a spark
And I'd tell her that my songs are
Just the stories of our lives
And the endings are unfinished
And not everyone survives
But how I only sing the truth
And that's something only she gets to decide
And I hope you lied
I hope you shrugged and rolled your eyes
And thought of all those other guys
Who promised love and gave it up
You'd never trust and never
Touch another life if you believed them all
Slutever and ever, oh man
And we can talk about it
If I was honest I'd have ended me in Tokyo
And maybe that was cheap or maybe
I'm just better than that
I'm calling it a chorus
Singing "never going back"
Flew into America, looking for a revelation
Ended up in Washington
And got our shit stolen
I guess the moral of the story
Is always take your wallet on the stage
And everyone is actors simply
Bouncing off each other
And our capitals are theatres and
All your friends play lover
So I'd ask you as whatever
Tell me that our script can be saved!
And it's on and it's off
And it's on and it's off
Yeah it's off no, it's on
No, it's off yeah, it's on!
Slutever and ever and ever and ever
And ever forever oh man
She leaves me hanging at the station
With the tourists and the touts
And I light another cigarette and
I wait with my doubts
And my doubts are all I have
As the summer burns the parks
And I'm scratching for an answer cause
I know she's going to ask
About the future that we're failing
And how we start a fire from a spark
And I'd tell her that my songs are
Just the stories of our lives
And the endings are unfinished
And not everyone survives
But how I only sing the truth
And that's something only she gets to decide
And I hope you lied
I hope you shrugged and rolled your eyes
And thought of all those other guys
Who promised love and gave it up
You'd never trust and never
Touch another life if you believed them all
Slutever and ever, oh man
And we can talk about it
If I was honest I'd have ended me in Tokyo
And maybe that was cheap or maybe
I'm just better than that
I'm calling it a chorus
Singing "never going back"
Flew into America, looking for a revelation
Ended up in Washington
And got our shit stolen
I guess the moral of the story
Is always take your wallet on the stage
And everyone is actors simply
Bouncing off each other
And our capitals are theatres and
All your friends play lover
So I'd ask you as whatever
Tell me that our script can be saved!
And it's on and it's off
And it's on and it's off
Yeah it's off no, it's on
No, it's off yeah, it's on!
Slutever and ever and ever and ever
And ever forever oh man
