Luyện nghe bài hát When I Was Cruel no. 2

I exit the spotlight glare
I stepped out thin air
a perfume so rarefied
"Here the bride"

Not quite aside, 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 selling speedboats in a show when I met her"

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

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

In an eau-de-nil and pale
A satin sash and elevation
She straightens the headdress of her spouse
While recalls a honey house

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

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

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

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

There are some things I report
The memory of his retort
But it was so easier
I was cruel

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