A Little Death Around The Eyes Songtext
von Peter Doherty

A little death around the eyes
Your boyfriend′s name was Dave
I was bold and brave
And now you're mine

You cook and clean and sew
When I tell you to, when I ask you to,
If I ask you to,
But I don′t want you to.

You don't need tellin' twice with me,
You don′t need tellin′ twice
You know who wears the trousers
No one wears the trousers
In a nutshell
To break free,
Ya well, you'll never have break free of me

Your boyfriend′s name was Dave
I was bold and brave
And now you're mine


You cook and clean and sew
When I tell you to
Dance and screw when I want you to
In a hotel room you take your medicine
On all fours, that′s your medicine
Feeling better son?
Filling in the cracks
In a nutshell
Feeling any better now?
Wish upon a star.

Some vague idea of the man you used to be
Oh the man you used to me

(Filling in the cracks)
Fe fi foe thumb
I smell the blood of an englishman
Be he alive or be he dead
(Filling in the cracks)
Wish upon a star

A little death around the eyes...
