Gee, but it's hard
When one lowers one's guard
to the vultures

Now, me I regard it
A torturous hardship
that smolders

Like a peppermint eaten away
Will I fight? Will I swagger, or sway?

Tee hee, milady
She cries like a baby
Scold us

See her tumbling down

Heil to the monkey
We're having a funky reunion
Wasted and sunk
he can only have Sunday communion

He's got nicotine stains in his eyes
He's got nothing to protect but his pride
Oh smothered a kiss
Or be drowned in blissful confusion

At last the crimson chord cascade
To shower dry cordials within
Too late to leap the chocolate gate
Pale fountains fizzing forth pink gin
While destiny begins to fly
The farmyard chorus sings its wake
Upstanding anthem to the sky
Too soon to realise their fate
You were the raven of October
I knew the sign you flew around
Up in the air so high above me
Never needed to look down
I never thought I´d be a rover
I didn´t even look around
But now I know you´ve found another
So will someone please find me
Give now the host his claret cup
And watch Madeira's farewell drink
Note his reaction acid sharp
Should make the cognoscenti think

lyrics to "Slave to Love" by Bryan Ferry



Tell her I'll be waiting
in the usual place
with the tired and weary
and there's no escape.

To need a women
you've got to know
how the strong get weak
and the rich get poor.

Slave to love
Oh Oh
Slave to love

You're running with me
don't touch the ground
we're the restless hearted
not the chained and bound.

The sky is burning
a sea of flame
though your world is changing
I will be the same.

Slave to love
oh oh
Slave to love
Slave to love
na na na na
na na na na
And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love

Can you help me?
Oh oh
Can you help me?

The storm is breaking
or so it seems
we're too young to reason
too grown to dream.

Now spring is turning
your face to mine
I can hear your laughter
I can see your smile.

Slave to love
na na na na
na na na na
And I can't escape
I'm a slave to love.

Friends say it's fine
Friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
I walk like a rat
Crawl like a cat
Sting like a bee
Babe I'm gonna be your man

And it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your toy
Your 20th Century boy

Friends say it's fine
Friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
Fly like a plane
Drive like a car
Ball like a hound
Babe I'm gonna be your man

And it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your toy
Your 20th Century boy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy

Friends say it's fine
Friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
I walk like a rat
Crawl like a cat
Sting like a bee
Babe I'm gonna be your man

And it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah I'm your toy
Your 20th Century boy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy
20th Century boy, I wanna be your toy

I could feel at the time
There was no way of knowing
Fallen leaves in the night
Who can say where they're blowing
As free as the wind
And hopefully learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning

CHORUS
More than this-there is nothing
More than this-tell me one thing
More than this-thre is nothing

It was fun for a while
There was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night
Who can say where we're going
No care in the world
Maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning

CHORUS

Oh I was moved by your screen dream
Celluloid pictures living
Your death could not kill our
love for you

Take two people romantic
Smoky nightclub situation
Your cigarette traces a ladder

Here´s looking at you kid
Celebrate years
Here´s looking at you kid
Wipe away tears
Long time


since we´re together
Now I hope it´s forever

Ideal love flies away now
White jacket moon black tie wings too
You gave her away to the hero

Words don´t express my meaning
Notes could not spell out the score
But finding not keeping´s the lesson


Here´s looking at you kid
Hard to forget
Here´s looking at you kid
At least not yet
Your memory stays
It lingers ever
Will fade away never
