Gilding the Lily

Reading left to right

Waiting for the fight scene

(I think that I'm just what I need)

I headed for a vice

Two lovers and a knife without a tree

(Seemingly so)

Sweet, you need

To take some time away

To take some time away

Shake without a sound

Our feet are safer on the ground

You keep your wits about you when I'm around

Shake without a sound

Our feet are safer on the ground

Past the point of poetry now

Gilding the lily

It's hard for you to wear this kind of shame

(I think that I'm just what I need)

And to boot, in such an ugly shade

(Seemingly so)

Sweet, you'll need

To take some time away

To take some time away

Shake without a sound

Our feet are safer on the ground

You keep your wits about you when I'm around

Shake without a sound

Our feet are safer on the ground

Past the point of poetry now

Gilding the lily

A violet needs perfume

Like a crown of gold needs more jewels

But we need time

Shake without a sound

Your feet are safer on the ground

You keep your wits about you when I'm around

Take some time away

Say you wouldn't like it anymore

Than if I'd stick around to gild the lily
