Letra da Música The Pretty Girls de Ed Harcourt

You're the circus tamer to my beast
I'm a puzzle with a missing piece
When I've been hanging off your soul by the skin of my teeth
Can't believe I've never been in jail
How you stuck with me beyond the pale
Sometimes I feel like I'm the monster in this fairytale
And what you love most I could well destroy
Because pretty girls always fall for the baddest boys

You're more stoic than prometheus
Much more heroic than the each of us
And unlike serpico you'll stand up for the morally corrupt
You can't teach an older dog new tricks
Ain't that the next move of a lunatic
But I don't wanna be the captain of an empty ship

And what you love most I could well destroy
Because pretty girls always fall for the baddest boys
What will become of the pretty girls, who put up with each of our beastly ways
Sacrifice all that they strive to be, so we can act like a damn disgrace
And what you love most I could well destroy
Because the pretty girls always fall for the baddest boys
The pretty girls always fall for the baddest boys
