Beautiful South Tonight I Fancy Myself Lyrics

Tonight I Fancy Myself Lyrics

She'd brought along the oranges
He'd brought the tea
They'd both brought
along a sick-bag just in case
The plate of chicken sandwiches
Were lovely
they agreed
And I watched him spit the bits into her face
'Do you love me
like you used to' he sighs
'I love you twice as much' she replies
They
were on the train to Venice, where else?
I think tonight I fancy
myself
I'd rather drink that toast to my own health
I think tonight I'd
rather love myself
And if you drink that drink to your own health
I think
tonight I'd rather love myself
Later in the evening
The sun came rolling
down
And they talked about their fantasies and fears
Between the heacy
breathing
And those lighter licking sounds
I heard him whisper this
question in her ear
'Would you still love me if I lost my legs?'
'I'd see
that you were loved and you were fed'
'I end up in a car crash almost
dead'
'For richer and for partly severed head'
I'd rather drink that
toast to my own health
I think tonight I'd rather love myself
And if you
drink that drink to your own health
I think tonight I'd rather love
myself
The neighbours ask them out but they flatly refuse
'We're saving
up for a world-wide cruise'
With a choice between loneliness and love-sick
QE2's
Well tonight I choose - self-abuse
A four-pack in the fridge
A
good book on the shelf
I think tonight I'd rather love myself
