The Sky Was So Blue It Was Scary

I know I said I loved you and I know I was drunk,
And your low-cut jeans showed off the teddy-bears on your underwear
And yeah, your ring-tone tune was junk.
As I watched you scanning groceries,
I was eating donuts from a bag,
Your friends told me it was your birthday today,
They had a stripogram coming in a thong the colours of the flag,
And the sky was so blue it was scary,
But your eyes were like nebulae, Mary……………..

You were counting out change, I said: “Me, I’m for sale, baby”,
You said: “Yeah, but your sell-by date was yesterday”
So I pretended I was listening to the classical music
That was purring over the house P.A.
A lucky roll of the cosmic dice saw us dancing a two-step
Gone 3am in some sleepy bar,
I said: “Look, I’ll just back off if you want me to?”
You said: “You just stay exactly where you are”.
I said: I’m like a vampire, Mary, I’m scared of the sunrise,
As the taxicab’s headlights rolled ‘cross your face anti-clockwise.
