Stornoway - Love Song Of The Beta Male lyrics

Don't ask me to make you laugh until you cry Because you know I'm on good form if I can raise a smile And don't ask me to sweep you up and carry you across the threshold Because you know I'd only hurt myself if I were to try I can tell you 'bout the way you make me feel inside When I lie beside you in our bed at night And I can listen to your troubles and hold you tight And tell you everything'll be alright But don't ask me to spin you round and dance with you Because you know I've two left feet and no guts with that And don't ask me to rise to your political debate I don't need reminding of my ignorance I can tell you about the way you make me feel inside As I lie beside you in our bed at night And I can listen to your troubles and hold you tight And tell you everything'll be alright And it doesn't matter what I do or what I say Because you're only gonna be yourself anyway And I don't need to tell you anything anyway To know that everything'll be alright If you don't ask me to save you From my mother when she stays too long Don't ask me to buy you fancy lingerie Well its an awful lot of money and I wouldn't know your size And don't ask me to make you rich or even bring home the bacon But I will cook it for you when I'm here And when I'm out on the road I'll write sentimental Songs about the way you make me feel inside As I lie beside you in our bed at night And we can listen to the traffic and I'll hold you tight And tell you everything'll be alright And it doesn't matter what I do or what I say Because you're only gonna be yourself anyway And I don't need to tell you anything anyway To know that everything'll be alright Don't ask me to spin you round and dance with you Don't ask me to walk 500 miles for you Don't ask me to sweep you up and carry you across the threshold Don't ask me to stand up to your big big brother for you Don't ask me to mend your broken car for you
