Rhinestones - Lloyd Cole

Just to break my heart in two

Just because you wanted to

Just to take me

Just to break me

Just to show me

That you own me

And you know that I know that you do

I say X, so you say Y

When you know I’m not a mathematical guy

I’ve got two left feet but I’ll come running all right

I wasn’t looking for trouble, it’s just a lazy eye

I see you dancing on the White House lawn

With some press corps suit (looks) like you’re getting along

He’s got connections, I’ve got none

He’ll give you rocks, I’ll give you rhinestones

But if you need me to beg?

I can plead, but

I can’t go back to K Street

Because you know where that bridge too far leads

Just to break my heart in two

Just because you wanted to

Just to take me

Just to break me

Just to show me

That you own me

And I know that you know that I know that you do
