Bad Libran
(专辑: Music Played By Humans - 2020)
Long before dating sites Helped mankind find love Matchmakers existed high above Forces far superior Knew our hearts' criteria Constellations sent down their decree Astrologically speaking Girls who might like me, like me, like Fun, loud noise No restriction, no regrets The
joys of life Living without safety nets The
thrill that you get from the
chase and the
pose That's the
girl that the
stars chose for me A
clash of heads No rational debate, just arguments instead Passionate, compulsive, an impulsive and wild, unpredictable rose That's the
girl that the
stars chose for me And who the
hell am I
to argue With bodies way up in the
sky? They knew my partner's major virtue Would be vice, to be precise, she could Only be a
Gemini, maybe at a
push She could possibly be Leo or like me, Aquarius So safe to say, my targets were locked down Until that fateful day a
Libran hit town Now those guys love harmony, balance and calm Not alarming Aquarians like me Well, she jumped my car Handbrake turned about and hit the
Kind of down-market, dark-cornered bar Where the
star charts say Libran's just never hang out Let alone start a
shot roulette game After a
while she's losing balance And scales are falling from my eyes When we emerge the
night is dawn-ish She's acting more sort of Capricorn-ish And summoning a
cab, climbing in the
back With a
load of people from all corners of the
Zodiac Before I
know I'm running down a
beach and diving In high seas with vodka and some Pisces And a
slight lack of clothes, and the
girl the
stars chose To make a
bad, bad, Libran out of me Scientists say we're made of stardust So I
suppose in my defense If we're all crazy mixed up stardust It kind of makes sense that on some days I'll Wake up Aquarian, but by lunch I'm coming over just a
little Leo So I
try and keep it Aries But there these people will get me hot and Taurus End of day my answers start getting Cancerous I
have a
little drink before you know it Completely Scorpio-ing And once again I
go to bed a
Virgo I
started to explain the
movement Way up high of bodies we don't understand She told me, "Just shut up and focus On the
movement of the
bodies that are down here in the
sand" And you know what? That night I
ripped up all the
charts and looked up at the
sky Just thanked my lucky stars instead That this girl they chose, holy cow, heaven knows Was the
right kind of absolutely wrong kind of girl to make a
Much better, much worse Aquarian of me Of me Oh, keep your eyes on the
skies
