Edwyn Collins - The Magic Piper (Of Love) lyrics

I'm through with love hangovers It's best that I stay sober No rolling in the clover No Gretna Green to Dover No honeymoon in Paris I only feel embarra**ed For the cool cats The tom kittens Both smitten by the love songs That he's written Caught in the sights Of a deadly sniper The magic piper of love The magic piper of love Of love, of love My girlfriend, she got blotto Half cut in Santa's grotto It turns out he's a dirty old man The last place that I want to be Is sat up on his Christmas tree While playing his games of Catch as catch can 'Cause he's a sweet talker A silent stalker All the savvy of a street walker More deadly than a horned viper The magic piper of love The magic piper of love Of love, of love He's a heart breaker A mover and a shaker The magic piper of love It's kinda hard to swallow You know you've gotta follow The magic piper of love 'Cause he's a city slicker An expert politicker The magic piper of love Of love, of love Of love, of love Of love, of love
