Coheed and Cambria Goodnight, Fair Lady

Tekst piosenki

[Verse 1]
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
I have a story to tell you
Of one slow decline
Where a girl yanked on the strings
To break this man’s heart

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh lord, I think I deserve a little better than this
I think I’ve earned it
So I’ll just keep humming this song and hope you follow

[Chorus]
Turn me over, roll me ’round
To find the truth that I don’t want found
Oh, don’t believe everything you hear
I’m the snake waiting for you, dear
And eventually you’ll come to me
I know you will

[Verse 2]
Oh, I know you will
Your lipstick crazy, I make my pass
The drink turns over, the glass smashed
And with the kindness and my smarts
I replace your pleasure with a friend at the bottom

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Oh, it’s my fate to be your biggest mistake
Oh, I’ll tell you all you want to hear until you sleep
Oh, I know you will
Oh, goodnight
Oh, Goodnight, Fair Lady

[Chorus]

[Outro]
We can agree to disagree
Well maybe that was you then, and now this is me
Eventually you’ll come to me, baby
I know you will
