Luyện nghe bài hát When I Was Cruel no. 2

I exit the spotlight glare
I out into thin air
Into a so rarefied
"Here the bride"

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

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

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

In an eau-de-nil and pale
A satin and velvet elevation
She the tipsy headdress of her spouse
hers recalls a honey house

There'll be no sorrows to drown
Early in the morning in evening gown
But it was so easier
I was cruel

The entrance hall was with hostesses and ushers
Who turned out to be the younger nursing schoolgirl crushes
Parting the waves of few feint friends
Fingers once offered are now too to extend

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

Two newspaper editors like sneaks
Running a book on which of is going to last the week
One of calls to me and he says, "I know you"
"You gave me tattoo back in eighty-two"
"You were a spoilt child with a record to plug"
"And I was a shaven-headed thug"
"Things haven't changed that much"
"One of us is still paid too much"

There are some things I report
The memory of his last
But it was so much
When I was

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