Ed Harcourt - the pretty girls lyrics

rate me

You’re the circus tamer to my beast

I’m a puzzle with a missing piece

When I’ve been hanging off your soul by the skin of my teeth

Can't believe I’ve never been in jail

How you stuck with beyond the pale

Sometimes I feel like I’m the monster in this fairytale

And what you love most I could well destroy

Because pretty girls always fall for the baddest boys

You're more stoic than Prometheus

Much more heroic than the each of us

And like Serpico you'll stand up for the morally corrupt

You cant teach an older dog new tricks

Ain't that the next move of a lunatic

But I don’t wanna be the captain of an empty ship

And what you love most I could well destroy

Because pretty girls always fall for the baddest boys

What will become of the pretty girls, who put up with each of our beastly ways

Sacrifice all that they strive to be, so we can act like a damn disgrace

And what you love most I could well destroy

Because the pretty girls always fall for the baddest boys

The pretty girls always fall for the baddest boys
