THE VANITY OF CHARM AND THE LIE OF BEAUTY
The vanity of charm and the lie of beauty
oh how I go after her
and stare at the lie of beauty
oh how I dream of her.
Morning and night in her footsteps,
oh how I am bound by her
and impressed by the lie of beauty
oh how i dream of her.
And how this lie,
how this lie has legs
and how this lie,
how this lie has hands
and how this lie,
how this lie has eyes
and how this lie,
how this lie has lips.
The vanity of charm and the lie of beauty
for seven days I no longer work
no longer have friends, no longer shave,
I don't eat, just drink coffee sometimes
waiting for her that she'll come
from around the corner and be discovered
and then I'll run to her
and sing to her wholeheartedly.*
