I Love You (But You're Green)

Babyshambles

    Continues after the ad

    I was a troubled teen
    Who put an advert in a magazine
    To the annoyance of my imaginary lover
    She questioned my integrity
    And this is what she said to me

    She said oh, you, you're green
    You don't know what love means
    Oh let me tell you
    It tickles you pink, oh yeah
    But it likes to hear you scream
    Fire and damnation, lamentations
    For the likes of you

    When she goes, oh just let her go
    If she says she's going
    Just make sure she goes
    Make sure she goes

    I was a troubled teen
    Untroubled only in my daydreams
    To the annoyance of someone or others
    They doubted my philosophy
    And this is what they said to me

    Oh, you, you'll soon be up where you belong
    But it's only blood from broken hearts
    That writes the words to every song
    A beautific smile
    For the fawners and the servants
    Oh but I, only I

    I can see the serpent
    Oh, you, you're green
    You don't know what love means
    Let me tell you
    It tickles you pink, oh yeah
    But it likes to hear you scream
    Fire and damnation, lamentations
    For the likes of you

    When she goes, oh just let her go
    If she says she's going
    Just make sure she goes
    Make sure she goes
