She sat on the pavement As I pulled in the drive Wearing leopard skin velvet And shiny black eyes "She looks like a sleeper"
Said my wife at the time She had curls like Delilah And a smile like the sun She held my poor corpse Like she´d never be done And the caption in my mind said "This is the one" But I´m strong and I´m disciplined And I avoided her for years ´Till one night, as usual With my heart full of tears A hand touched my back And she was standing right there Then I felt the luxury of her I felt the luxury of her I felt the luxury of her I felt the luxury Whispering
Whispering
Now I´ll try hard to tell things just like they is How my life was a desert before she came in And wrecked it and ripped it and rubbed my nerves thin How I liked to see her little feet pad around the house The way she curled up quietly on the couch I can still see her in my mind that way now Aah I felt the luxury of her I felt the luxury of her I felt the luxury of her
Well time went by quickly And her confidence grew And she wanted this and that
And she wanted those too And she wouldn´t shut up And one day I just blew up Now she´s in the hospital For the second time Maybe she´ll die Maybe I´ll cry Therapists would say "You´re in denial" But love became inconvenient Love became a literal drag Very bad for business I´d be better off a fag She´s a model de sport That I can´t afford ´Cause I´m a practical American From the Middle-West And I can piss on a grave
While welcoming guests If cold´s what I am I´m cold ´till the end And I felt the luxury of her I felt the luxury of her Now I´m gonna continue walking In the modern world Which justifies every egotistical perversion With scientific talk And new ways to walk But I´ll remember the religion She became to me And the other person I could have been So for now I´ll say so long I gotta go do wrong I gotta go do wrong I felt the luxury I felt the luxury
