lyrics
who gives a damn about your Barcelonian binges?
your man, he took you to Paris and cheated in Venice.
you gotta give yourself away to live
a world class rower learned it as your bedmate
but he drives a Porsche and he brought some gin
and a Joy Division seven-inch.
you'd never miss it
you gotta love someone to love yourself
these one-night-stands are not enough
to get you by so you search for a different type
and you put yourself in situations
scandalous and dangerous
it's obvious that this won't get you by
who gives a damn about Lord Byron, you're gonna forget him
you're gonna take care of him after class and I'll miss it
you gotta give yourself away to live:
a French professor hiding in your closet
but he has a knack for poetry
and he always brings the opiates
you'd never miss it
you gotta love someone to love yourself
these one-night-stands are not enough
to get you by so you search for a different type
and you put yourself in situations
scandalous and dangerous
it's obvious that this won't get you by
i met you on the terrace wall
you shed your skin
you're slow to crawl to undeserving arms
while I go unnoticed
it's hard to catch you in a fall
and hard to fall in love at all
your vices grow too strong
and i go unnoticed
but who gives a damn about your heart?
your man, he took you to Paris and cheated in Venice.
you gotta give yourself away to live
a world class rower learned it as your bedmate
but he drives a Porsche and he brought some gin
and a Joy Division seven-inch.
you'd never miss it
you gotta love someone to love yourself
these one-night-stands are not enough
to get you by so you search for a different type
and you put yourself in situations
scandalous and dangerous
it's obvious that this won't get you by
who gives a damn about Lord Byron, you're gonna forget him
you're gonna take care of him after class and I'll miss it
you gotta give yourself away to live:
a French professor hiding in your closet
but he has a knack for poetry
and he always brings the opiates
you'd never miss it
you gotta love someone to love yourself
these one-night-stands are not enough
to get you by so you search for a different type
and you put yourself in situations
scandalous and dangerous
it's obvious that this won't get you by
i met you on the terrace wall
you shed your skin
you're slow to crawl to undeserving arms
while I go unnoticed
it's hard to catch you in a fall
and hard to fall in love at all
your vices grow too strong
and i go unnoticed
but who gives a damn about your heart?
