My Love - Marc Almond, David James Ball

Satin, satin and velvet

Leather and lipstick

On the one that I love

Cheap gold, necklace of cheap gold

Plastic and rhinestones

On the one that I love

My love acts like a porno star

Talks like a trickster

And tricks like a whore

But my love looks like an icon

And that’s what I adore

Vinyl, rubber and vinyl

Viscose and velcro

On the one that I love

Purple week-old mascara

A broken tiara

On the one that I love

My love wakes up on vodka

Beds down on valium

And sleeps on the floor

My love looks beautifully wasted

And that’s what I adore

My love loves tattoos in biro

Love bites in lager

And long menthol fags

My love smokes like Bette Davis

In short, vicious drags

My love sleeps like an angel

Dreams like the devil

On sheets of velor

My love is a living disaster

And that’s

Oh yeah that’s

What I adore
