Lustsong

Were you planning on having kids

So you could one day gather them around

And tell them the romantic story of how you

And their dad first met in Tiger Tiger?

Instead, you’re here on your bed

Tears and Gossip Girl and Adele’s latest album

Again and again, you get laid only to get played

A broken heart pumping blood to a simple mind

What were you expecting?

What were you expecting?

How could you think that this meant love

When you were both clearly half cut?

You prayed to Venus but Bacchus answered

And he said “this shit club is the wrong temple, love”

You woke up with a sore head

And a stomach full of butterflies

Four days later, it’s all over, your little dream

Seven, same again, give love another try

What were you expecting?

What were you expecting?
