my cruel joke
(featuring Tracy Bonham) I used to think cupid was a real jerk A child star, tormented A faded star of yesterday Now toothless and jaded He shoots his arrows wildely with bottles Scattered across the sky He trips on clouds With a face like Keith Richards I am your voice what you propose I am your choice your vow to be Whatever you do I'll agree Please forgive me my cruel joke I'm everywhere, partial and entire I'm on the inside of everything And on the outside I'm trembling like a man away from home But I can't speak my heart In case they hear me Now, no one will listen to our song I used to think cupid was an asshole The loneliest soul in the universe And as the wrinkled birdman approached me I could smell his smouldering cigarette breath And he looked at me out the corner of his head And he spoke So, you ask me why no one stays together anymore You're never around when I need you You're never around when I need you
