loretta's tale

watch loretta taste the wine

kick the actor from behind

sprawl across the sofa then

speak of foreign towns again

like the loner seek marlene

ask the waitress: 'where you been?'

she says: 'don't give me no lies'

'i been inside your head at least three times'

i never lost control

it was a very strange show

and all i ever got was: 'oh! are you never gonna go?'

spy ramona by the door

calling me the perfect whore

only sweet loretta speaks

'wipe the humour from your cheeks'

and as the make-up starts to fade

she doesn't wait

she hides away

noticing her friends had gone

she starts to ask: 'oh what went wrong?'

i never lost control

it was a very strange show

and all i ever got was: 'oh! are you never gonna go?'

for loretta one

she only played for fun

she gave her life away

counted hundreds came to none

i never lost control

it was a very strange show

and all i ever got was: 'oh! are you never gonna go?'
