Five Ways to End It Lyrics by The Long Blondes

Someone to Drive You Home

0

A snakeskin shoe locked in his cupboard
A collected memento from a distant affair
Well I am the woman that it once belonged to
It's lingering presence warns you to beware
Do you ever wonder why he still keeps it?
Do you even know if I gave back his key?
You said you'd discovered five ways to end it
Well Barbara I'm sorry, you didn't fool me
It wouldn't take more than five days to disown him...
Finish him with five ways to end it...
I find there's more Hattie Jacques in his fancies
He wanted a woman to cling to you see
Drunk in the bath with his matronly missus
She'd make him happy when he could be with me
He takes all his women for decadent dinners
But expensive restaurants don't mean a thing
When was the last time he grabbed you and kissed you?
I know you remember how it used to be
It wouldn't take more than five days to disown him...
Finish him with five ways to end it...
(Silk suspenders in his drawer
Should be telling you so much more
But you're affraid to look behind incase you find
The passport photos of someone who went before
How are you gonna do this?
Walk away from everything you know?
Where will you go?
I don't know
He's been doing this for years and can't carry on
This is no Peter Roger's Production
He'll never be there
When you're feeling depressed and you want him to care
You lie together in bed every night
You've never felt less loved.)
End in sight, Sunday night
He's on the sofa - you did it alright
Take him out for a drink
Then tell him you're leaving and watch him sink
You found out who you are
Now walk away slowly - you're going to go far
Loving him will always hurt
And having those feelings will only break your heart...
