have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles,

Destruction

There are twelve hours
There's a day between us
And you called to say you're sorry in your own way

There are oceans and waves and wires between us
And you called to say you're getting older

And sometimes planes they smash up in the sky
And sometimes lonely hearts they just get lonelier

I wonder what on Earth's my baby's doin'
If she's not at home there's trouble brewin'
If she really loves me she'll believe in what I say
Tryin' hard to find out where my baby is tonight
If she's not at home I'd better go

Books written for girls

You can compliment me on the style of my hair
Give me marks out of ten for the clothes that I wear
You probably thought I had more upstairs

I disappoint you
I can see through your perfect smile

He likes to read books written for girls
He prides himself on being a man of the world
In the darkest of places he gets his thrills

He will disappoint you
If you see through his perfect smile

Now, I think separation is okay
You're no star to guide me anyway
You only wanted me to play a fool
Play by your rule

solo, etc

Now my door has swollen from the rain
God knows we'll never see her face again
People get shattered in many ways

They can disappoint you
If you see through their perfect smile

Now, I think separation is okay
Cos you're no star to guide me anyway
You only wanted me to play a fool
Play by your rules
A fool
Play by your rules
