Goodnight, Fair Lady

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
I have a story to tell you of ones slow decline
Where a girl yanked on the strings
To break this man's heart

Oh lord, I think I deserve a little better than this
I think I've earned it
So I'll just keep humming this song
And hope you follow

Turn me over, roll me 'round
To find the truth that I don't want found
Oh, don't believe everything you hear
I'm the snake waiting for you dear
And eventually you'll come to me
I know you will...oh, I know you will

You're lipstick-crazy, I make my pass
The drink turns over, the glass smashed
And with the kindness and my smarts
I replace your pleasure
With a friend at the bottom

Turn me over, roll me 'round
To find the truth that I don't want found
Oh, don't believe everything you hear
I'm the snake waiting for you dear
And eventually you'll come to me
I know you will

Ooh, it's my fate to be your biggest mistake
Oh, oh, I'll tell you all you want to hear
Until you scream

I know you will

Oh, goodnight, oh, goodnight, fair lady

Oh, turn me over, roll me 'round
To find the truth that I don't want found
Oh, don't believe everything you hear
I'm the snake waiting for you dear
And eventually you'll come to me
And eventually you'll come to me

Oh, we can agree to disagree
Maybe that was you then, but now this is me
And eventually you'll come to me
Baby, I know you will
