a romantic guy

Singer:voltaire

i'll buy the champagne

take it back to the place

we're staying tonight

that's right

a hotel down the way

i'll take you out to a play

keep ya dry in the rain

and i'll open each door

before you

chivalry's my way

but in time i'll make you sigh

and here's the reason why

'cause i'm just a romantic guy

on our second date

i say i just can't wait

to call you my own

and i'll be yours and yours alone

in time you will find

i'm the trusting kind

i am true blue

it's true i'd never cheat on you

but in time i'll make you cry

and here's the reason why

'cause i'm just a romantic guy

strike up the band

give me your hand

playing our song

so come along

it won't be long

'till everything goes wrong

now you're throwing a fit

and you're drunk off your tits

and you're making a scene

you're mean

you're screaming in the streets

seem your logic has quit

personality split

and your reason is treason

like some rats above a ship

it's no surprise

i'll say goodbye

i don't need a reason why

i just don't have time

for that shit

so if you're prone to histrionics

hey

babe lets keep it platonic

i just don't have time

for your shit

now we all have a misgivings

i'm not very patient or too forgiving

i'm just

literally just a romantic guy
