Michelangelo

I know, she works her fingers to the bone
And she held her hands up high
Let it settle and subside
And set out ten pound notes and overcoats
And you’ll find out

Time, takes its  toll on what you want
Now she says she’ll let it go
Talking Michelangelo
And Prufrock proved his point, it’s always ten to one

And she don’t want to get ahead
You’re better off instead
Life size model on a cigarette
And going back to bed
You can’t blame her
She says what she says from the start

She finds, it’s hard for him to speak his mind
Once you’ve seen the mess he’s made
Climbing high steel palisades
And he said something slowly at the start
Watching something, somewhere watching
She falls apart
She falls apart
She falls apart
Oh, she falls apart

And she don’t want to get ahead
You’re better off instead
Life size model on a cigarette
And going back to bed
You can’t blame her
She says what she says from the start
No, you can’t blame her
She says what she says from the start
