Desire Is Sad

I look at you, I look at her with much regret

Another life is strange

The sinners come, with penance wet

And try to force change

But our fortune's set in stone



She's got beauty

And she's famed for being so cruel



And I said I won't be too late

I said I won't be too high

To find out what your sweet thing wants

And I said I won't be too lame

I said I won't be too blind

To ask her what your sweet thing wants

'Cause you may learn to your regret

As I have found to mine

Desire is sad

You know it can be (At least is can become so)



I learnt that she could say goodbye without regret

And how that drives you crazy baby

I learnt that she was ruder than

A marmoset and almost as lazy baby



She's got beauty

And she's famed for being so cruel
