MY ONLY VICE Lyrics

Artist: Steve Harley
Album: The Human Menagerie

Simply Lorraine sings for a while
In a three-octave harmonica style
Itâ‚¬â„¢s easy to see her harmony
stabbing at my songs from behind
Trying to stick her cosmic philosopherâ‚¬â„¢s
words into rhymes
Nobody can tell it the same
To her everythingâ‚¬â„¢s just like a game
But sheâ‚¬â„¢ll make it seem some big machineâ‚¬â„¢s
driving you clean outa your mind
Come on admit it, thatâ‚¬â„¢s just the limit,
weâ‚¬â„¢ve travelled from mad to sublime

Oh sheâ‚¬â„¢s a lady from a background of pearls
Whoâ‚¬â„¢s tormenting and bending my world
My only vice is the fantastic prices I
Charge for being eaten aliveâ‚¬

So Nina can paint dragons on guitars
She can roll up a Victorian vase,
That gal can sweep, skip,
jump and leap into a room full of clowns,
No oneâ‚¬â„¢ll tame her, no oneâ‚¬â„¢ll claim her,
â‚¬â„¢til sheâ‚¬â„¢s been at least all around
Doreen is a hunk of a man,
she can wipe every boy from the land
But Lorraine can fly it way outa sight
then bring it on back to the fold
Give me a chance, I want romance,
donâ‚¬â„¢t give me your love quite so cold

Oh sheâ‚¬â„¢s a lady from a background of pearls
Whoâ‚¬â„¢s tormenting and bending my world
My only vice is the fantastic prices I
Charge for being eaten aliveâ‚¬
