I Can't Stay Here Tonight Songtext
von Clem Snide

I can′t stay here tonight
There's buttons to sew
And lust to be made to seem tender

With a freshened up face
And smile-bearing lips
I′ll practice it, locked in the bathroom


We can't stay here tonight
This waitress is tired
Of waging a war of attrition
So pay for the coffee
And we'll take it to go
And you hold the cup while I′m driving

I can′t stay here tonight
There's blankets to fold
And love to make polished and silver
And store it away behind memory′s glass
We'll take it out when we get lonely
