King Leer

King Leer 3.31

Väldigt detaljrik liten sak. Många bra ögonblick med mycket av det som på engelska heter "wit", som de ödesmättade raderna "because you never do", "to dial" och "you´ll never guess - I´m bored now". Väldigt udda låt, dock väldigt typisk för skivan i sin helhet. Finns det något som heter tafflig briljans? Nu finns det något som heter det. Och så var det ju det där med too close to home and too near the bone för att jag ska kunna motstå låten...! Här är texten:

Your boyfriend, he went down on one knee
Well, could it be he´s only got one knee?
I tried to surprise you, with Vodka...or Tizer
I can´t quite remember, but you didn´t thank me
You didn´t even thank be
Because you never do...

Your boyfriend, he has the gift of the gab
Or, could it be the gift of the grab?
I tried to surprise you, I laid down beside you
And nothing much happened, and you didn´t phone me
You didn´t even phone me
Because it´s not your style...
To dial

Your boyfriend, he has displayed to me
More than just a real hint of cruelty
I tried to surprise you, I crept up behind you
With a homeless chihuahua, you cooed for an hour
You handed him back and you said: "You´ll never guess - I´m bored now
