lyrics

I never wanted any of this,
But I must keep dreaming,
Smeared a pricked finger on my lips,
Oh now I'm pretty.

Get me pickled before you touch me,
Jerking limbs are reactionary,
Laughing at gibberish,
cocktails are miserable,
Breath just like Satan's ash,
Your lips are despicable.

Baby, how can I please you?
How may I make your day?
What's it take to appease you?
Select one sordid game and...

Let's Pretend that we're not people,
Let's Pretend that we're both free,
Let's Pretend it's all for fun and,
Let's Pretend it's not just for me,
Let's Pretend that there's no demons,
Let's Pretend it's just a dream,
Let's Pretend it's good behaviour and,
Let's Pretend we both agree.

The night goes on,
Trudging through the rain,
Pavement wet with issue,
Pigeons soak in pain,
A tale of two gritties,
Produce of the same vine,
Dirty, both with past-times,
Our futures are behind.

Your face is red and leery,
Have I caused you doubt?
Justified in secret,
I'm holding Aces palmed,
Darling, let's go party,
I know a little place,
With golden nectar that shall make us,
Fall from grace.

Let's Pretend that we're just foolin',
Let's Pretend we're on a date,
Let's Pretend I've told the truth and,
Let's Pretend I don't know your fate,
Let's Pretend that I'm a keeper,
Let's Pretend it's not just for cash,
Let's Pretend I didn't chemically adjust you and,
Let's Pretend your ass ain't grass!

Let's Pretend that we're not people,
Let's Pretend that we're both free,
Let's Pretend it's all for fun and,
Let's Pretend it's not just for me,
Let's Pretend that there's no demons,
Let's Pretend it's just a dream,
Let's Pretend it's good behaviour and,
Let's Pretend we both agree.
