"Songs Of Love" lyrics
"Songs Of Love"
Pale, pubescent beasts, roam through the streets
And coffee-shops, their prey gather in herds
Of stiff knee-length skirts and white ankle-socks
But while they search for a mate, my type hibernate
In bedrooms above, composing their songs of love
Young, uniform minds, in uniform lines
And uniform ties run 'round with trousers on fire
And signs of desire, they cannot disguise
While I try to find words, as light as the birds
That circle above to put in my songs of love
Fate doesn't hang on a wrong or right choice
Fortune depends on the tone of your voice
So sing while you have time, let the sun shine down from above
And fill you with songs of love
Fate doesn't hang on a wrong or right choice
Fortune depends on the tone of your voice
So sing while you still can, while the sun hangs high up above
Wonderful songs of love, beautiful songs of love
Beautiful songs of love

Eels - "That Look You Give That Guy" I never thought that I could be so bold
To even say these thoughts aloud
I see you with your man
Your eyes just shine
While he stands tall
And walking proud
That look you give that guy

Bright Eyes - "Flirted With You All My Life" I am a man
I am self-aware
Everywhere I go
You're always right there with me
I flirted with you all my life
Even kissed you once or twice
And to this day I swear it was nice
But, clearly, I was not...
Frank Turner - "The Way I Tend To Be" Some mornings I pray for evening,
For the day to be done.
Some summer days I hide away
And wait for rain to come.
It turns out hell will not be found
Within the fires below,
But in making do and...
