Paul Heaton - Even A Palm Tree lyrics

I can't find you attractive Unless I've had d** What about just getting plain drunk? She shrugs I mean, flies love sh** And lizards love bugs Yeah but there ain't no snails Sleeping with slugs Like there ain't no Kings Sleeping with ho's You saying a slug ain't never climbed a rose? You think when Adam had Eve, Eve chose? Y'all just cavemen in better cars And worse clothes When the man has had quite enough Of woman answering back He goes out and buys a dog But not to race on track 6 months training dog To be a genuine friend That serves him Companion to the end The only difference 'tween the wife And what the dog don't do Is make his tea most every night And grant him monthly screw Y'all just cavemen in better cars But worse clothes So when I drank that quart of vodka And turned up at your door Was it meant to say I love you At half past f**ing four? Is that what true love does to you? Does it microwave your brain? So you can't tell the difference Between love and pain I was trying to say I love you That I want to make amends You throw stones against my window And you think we're back to friends Y'all just cavemen in better cars And worse clothes He's going out cause it's not raining She's staying in too despite the sun Drawing curtains on a summers day Causin' sadness just searching for fun Loving life for no real reason Adore your job cause you love the pain Hate working in high season Even a palm tree needs a little rain Meanwhile, the woman bored Of not being listened to Buys a cat to prove just that It's him and not just you That cat it may not say that much But least it lends it's ear To conversation livelier Than football, girls and beer Y'all just cavemen in better cars But worse clothes He's going out cause it's not raining She's staying in too despite the sun Drawing curtains on a summers day Causin' sadness just searching for fun Loving life for no real reason Adore your job cause you love the pain Hate working in high season Even a palm tree needs a little rain Even a palm tree Even a palm tree Even a palm tree needs a little rain
