Parenthetical Girls - The Comedienne lyrics

Your words phonetically rehearsed Dutch courage slowed as they were Oh babe, I know it hurts Afraid there must be some mistake His fingers felt your heart race Now let me get this straight... The whole thing started as a joke French letters and a trench coat He thought I had the right to know You weren't supposed to fall in love With throw-up on your shirt cuff You never meant to hurt anyone But it's only wrong if you get caught A question mark-cum-full stop A pox upon his helpless heart
