My Only Vice Is The Fantastic Prices I Charge For Being Eaten Alive lyrics

Simply Lorraine sings for a while

In a three-octave harmonica style

It`s easy to see her harmony

stabbing at my songs from behind

Trying to stick her cosmic philosopher`s

words into rhymes

Nobody can tell it the same

To her evcrything`s just like a game

But she`ll make it seem some big machine`s

driving you clean outa your mind

Come on admit it, that`s just the limit,

we`ve travelled from mad to sublime



Chorus:

Oh she`s a lady from a background of pearls

Who`s tormenting and bending my world

My only vice is the fantastic prices I

Charge for being eaten alive. . .



So Nina can paint dragons on guitars

She can roll up a Victorian vase,

That gal can sweep, skip,

jump and leap into a room full of clowns,

No one`ll tame her, no one`ll claim her,

`til she`s been at least all around

Doreen is a hunk of a man,

she can wipe every boy from the land

But Lorraine can fly it way outa sight

then bring it on back to the fold

Give me a chance, I want romance,

don`t give me your love quite so cold



Chorus:
