about

charles and diana, sam and delilah, teaching eliza doolittle to cry. too good to leave, too bad to stay...the power of procrastination.

lyrics

ROUGH APPROXIMATION:

MY FAIR LADY

you know I love you baby !
i know, i know, i know, i'm doing you wrong
that's why i keep rewriting this song,
i thought at least on paper it might work out...

my love for you: a tall tree in a storm underneath a rainbow.
if that was true, why should i be torn ?! by differing views ?

I wanna make a baby !
oh no oh no oh no i just changed my mind.
it felt so good, so true at the time
like Glastonbury Hill or that purple wine...

my love for you is like a summer's day:
dogs die in hot cars.
we've come so far, why not go all the way ?!
out of the frying pan and into the fire...

how many times after all these years have i been struck by lightning ?
how many times the minotaur will bite
the oh so exciting, terribly frightening Tuesday Night ?

have I forgot you baby ?
but i remember now we're getting undressed,
i mean to say you're simply the best,
at least the best lord Alzheimer's gonna get...

my love for you is starting to define the word  «  procrastination »  ,
playing for time, the same old petty crimes:
Charles and Diana ?! Sam and Delila ?!
training Eliza Doolittle to lie
