The Divine Comedy - A Woman Of The World lyrics
When she was just a girl
She became a woman of the world
Soon there wasn't room enough for her
In between the bosoms of her family
She popped the cork, got on the Greyhound to New York
Small-talked her way round just the sort
Of playboys' playground she'd once dreamed about
Maybe I love her, but I'm jealous of her
She's a woman of the world
She's a fake!-sure, but she's a real fake
On the make!-making up for lost time
Just you wait!-hey, give the girl a break
And a fifty dollar bill will see to that
Heh, that ain't enough to feed the catThe Divine Comedy - A Woman Of The World - http://motolyrics.com/the-divine-comedy/a-woman-of-the-world-lyrics.html
Serve up the rats and super rats
Well they just get fatter while she fades away
Maybe I love her, but I'm jealous of her
She's a woman of the world
Maybe I hate her, 'cause I didn't create her
It's human nature, girl
Maybe I'll suffer, just to be her lover
Just to be part of her world
Maybe I need her, because I want to be her baby, can I be your girl?
Maybe I'll kill her, just trying to thrill her if she don't kill me first
We're making eye-contact
Oh those hypnotic eyes attract
Such philanthropic flies-that's that.
You cannot stop it, so why the devil do you try?
