*Rufus Wainwright (I)

Cigarettes and chocolate milk,
these are just a couple of my cravings
everything it seems I likes
a little bit stronger,
a little bit thicker,
a little bit harmful for me.

If I should buy jellybeans
have to eat them all in just one sitting
everything it seems I likes
a little bit sweeter,
a little bit fatter,
a little bit harmful for me.

And then there's those other things
which for several reasons we won't mention
everything about them is
a little bit stranger,
a little bit harder,
a little bit deadly.

It isn't very smart
tends to make one part
so brokenhearted.

Sitting here remembering me
Always been a shoe made for the city
Go ahead accuse me of just singing about places
With scrappy boys faces have general run of the town

Playing with prodigal sons
Take a lot of sentimental valiums
Cant expect the world to be your raggedy andy
While running on empty you little old doll with a frown

You got to keep in the game
Retaining mystique while facing forward
I suggest a reading of lesson in tightropes
Or surfing your high hopes or adios kansas

It isn't very smart
Tends to make one part
So brokenhearted

Still there's not a show on my back
Holes or a friendly intervention
Im just a little bit heiress,
a little bit irish,
a little bit tower of pisa
whenever I see ya
so please be kind if Im a mess.
