Luyện nghe bài hát When I Was Cruel no. 2

I exit through the spotlight
I stepped out into air
Into a so rarefied
"Here the bride"

Not aside, they snide, "she's number four"
"There's three just by the door"
in the know, don't even flatter her, they go one better
"She was speedboats in a trade show when I met her"

at her now
She's to yawn
She looks like she was to it
But it was so easier
When I was

She reaches out her to me
"another melody?"
So she can her husband out on the floor
The of industry just lie there where they fall

In an eau-de-nil and carnation
A satin sash and velvet
She straightens the tipsy headdress of her
hers recalls a honey house

There'll be no sorrows to drown
in the morning in your evening gown
But it was so much
When I was

The entrance was arranged with hostesses and ushers
Who turned out to be the younger wives nursing crushes
Parting the of those few feint friends
Fingers once offered are now too heavy to

The ghostly first wife glides up on stage whispering to raucous
Spilling family secrets out to flunkies and castrato
See girl
Watch scene
the "Dancing Queen"

Two newspaper editors playground sneaks
Running a book on which of them is going to the week
One of them calls to me and he says, "I you"
"You me this tattoo back in eighty-two"
"You a spoilt child then with a record to plug"
"And I was a seaside thug"
"Things haven't really changed much"
"One of us is still paid too much"

There are some things I can't
The of his last retort
But it was so easier
When I was

at me now
She's to yawn
She looks she was born to it
Ah, but it was so much
When I was
