I Felt The Luxury lyrics

She sat on the pavement
As I pulled in the drive
Wearing leopard skin velvet
And shiny black eyes
`She looks like a sleeper`
Said my wife at the time
She had curls like Delilah
And a smile like the sun
She held my poor corpse
Like she`d never be done
And the caption in my mind said
`This is the one`
But I`m strong and I`m disciplined
And I avoided her for years
`Till one night, as usual
With my heart full of tears
A hand touched my back
And she was standing right there
Then I felt the luxury of her
I felt the luxury of her
I felt the luxury of her
I felt the luxury
Whispering
Whispering

Now I`ll try hard to tell things just like they is
How my life was a desert before she came in
And wrecked it and ripped it and rubbed my nerves thin
How I liked to see her little feet pad around the house
The way she curled up quietly on the couch
I can still see her in my mind that way now
Aah I felt the luxury of her
I felt the luxury of her
I felt the luxury of her

Well time went by quickly
And her confidence grew
And she wanted this and that
And she wanted those too
And she wouldn`t shut up
And one day I just blew up
Now she`s in the hospital
For the second time
Maybe she`ll die
Maybe I`ll cry
Therapists would say
`You`re in denial`
But love became inconvenient
Love became a literal drag
Very bad for business
I`d be better off a fag
She`s a model de sport
That I can`t afford
`Cause I`m a practical American
From the Middle-West
And I can piss on a grave
While welcoming guests
If cold`s what I am
I`m cold `till the end
An
