Soft Cell - Kitchen Sink Drama Lyrics
Passing time in the afternoonCleaning the bathroom floorRearrange things in the dining roomCovers the chip on the kitchen doorThe paperboy winks as he hands her a paperHe's cheekier every dayShe undoes her apron and sinks on the sofaThrows all her household chores awayShe's in a fantasyIt's not so hard to seeThat she is living a lieShe'll never be the sameShe shuts her eyes againWaves all her worries goodbyePuts on her make-upAnd smoothes down her dressAnd finds the right words to sayHolds a remaining spark of beautyEscape is only a romance awayTroubles come flooding back with her migraineShe trembles and shuts her eyesIt's a good thing that friends come in little bottlesTime to shake up and prepare for the liesShe's in a fantasyIt's not so hard to seeThat she is living a lieShe'll never be the sameShe shuts her eyes againWaves all her worries goodbyePushing the hair back from her faceShaping her thoughts in the skyHeaven is through her kitchen window"Pity it's only a dream", she sighsImagines herself as Elizabeth TaylorThe paperboy cycles awayShe turns on the stoveSoon her husband is home"Hello dear, it's been such a long day"She's in a fantasyIt's not so hard to seeThat she is living a lieShe'll never be the sameShe shuts her eyes againWaves all her worries goodbyeShe's in a fantasyIt's not so hard to seeThat she is living a lieShe'll never be the sameShe shuts her eyes againWaves all her worries goodbye
