Delicious Songtext
von Andy Bell

Said you were restless, I didn′t like your dresses
Thought you would move to another part of town
I got your message, been sifting through the wreckage
For this excuse, we called a life

A DIY quickie slow divorce
Marriage vows broken on the rocks
Mine's a slice with a G&T
And here′s to toast that you're leaving me

I will not cry 'til the fat lady sings
I cannot fly ′cause you′ve clipped my wings
Now you're the picture of my disgrace
Now wipe that pretty smile off your face


I wouldn′t say we were incomplete
I can't complain, you were so discreet
Kept your liaisons to yourself
My soul′s distraught, now I'm getting out
You were delicious, could never be malicious
Now you hold a knife up to my throat
Of its own volition, you took your ammunition
Came rushing through the air like a UFO

I cannot say that I learnt my lesson well
Mysterious ways got a lot to tell
Sure got a wicked sense of humour
You stick the knife in and twist it ′round

I will not cry 'til the fat lady sings
I cannot fly 'cause you′ve clipped my wings
Now you′re the picture of my disgrace
Now wipe that pretty smile off your face

I wouldn't say we were incomplete
I can′t complain, you were so discreet
Kept your liaisons to yourself
My soul's distraught now I′m getting out

I will not cry 'til the fat lady sings
I cannot fly ′cause you've clipped my wings
Now you're the picture of my disgrace
Now wipe that pretty smile off your face


I wouldn′t say we were incomplete
I can′t complain, you were so discreet
Kept your liaisons to yourself
My soul's distraught now I′m getting out
