Delilah - The Dresden Dolls

There’s no end to the love you can give

When you change your point of view to underfoot

Very good

You may be flat but you’re breathing

And there’s no doubt he’s at home in his room

Probably watching porn of you from the fall

It’s last call

And you’re the last one leaving

And you thought you could change the world

By opening your legs

Well it isn’t very hard

Try kicking them instead

And you thought you could change his mind

By changing your perfume to the kind his mother wore

O god, Delilah, why?

I never met a more impossible girl…

In this same bar where you slammed down your hand

And said «Amanda, I’m in love»

No, you’re not

You’re just a sucker for the ones who use you

And it doesn’t matter what i say or do

The stupid bastard’s gonna have his way with you…

You’re an unrescuable schizo

Or else you’re on the rag

If you take him back

I’m gonna lose my nerve

I never met a more impossible girl…

I never met a more impossible girl…

At four o’clock he got off

And you called up

«I'm down at Denny’s on Route 1

And you won’t guess what he’s done»

Is that a fact, Delilah?

Larry tap let you in through the back

And use his calling card again

For a quick hand of gin

You are impossible, Delilah: the princess of denial

And after 7 years in advertising, you are none the wiser

You’re an unrescuable schizo

Or else you’re on the rag

Cause if you take him back

I’m gonna lose my nerve

He’s gonna beat you like a pillow

You schizos never learn

And if you take him home

You’ll get what you deserve

So don’t cry, Delilah

You’re still alive, Delilah

You need a ride, Delilah?

Let’s see how fast this thing can go…
