Songtext zu 'Grimaldi' von Carl Barat

While there's still a fighting chance
Why don't you just get up and go?
Get away from this blasting romance
That it's slowly binding us both

Because you tell me what you want and I'll avoid it
Tell it to the sick and to the damned
Tell me what you love, watch me destroy it
Your love just crumbles in my hands

But if you stay for a while
I'll try to think of something kind to say
Maybe we should pray for a while
St. Jude may come to me
Hear my plea
See me on my bended knee

You laugh and fall just like Grimaldi
And you look like Baby Jane
All of those promising lies that you told me
Come on and tell me them again

Because you tell me what you want, and I'll avoid it
Tell it to the sick and to the damned
Tell me what you love, watch me destroy it
Your love just crumbles in my hands

But if you stay for a while
I'll try to think of something kind to say
Maybe we should pray for a while
St. Jude may hear my plea
Come to me
See me on my bended knee

She knows how I adore her

They'll be fighting again tonight
Just like the last, it was not right
And you know
They'll be fighting in the streets
From the last until we meet

I walked the streets all of my life
And now I'm doin' it again
If you take a motley scrubber for your lover, for your wife
And you may never walk again

Because you tell me what you want, and I'll avoid it
Tell it to the sick and to the damned
Tell me what you love, watch me destroy it
Your love just crumbles in my hands
