Lipgloss - Momus

Well they say to love, to cherish

To honour and obey

(But these days they never say «obey»)

I always think they ought to say «decay and rot away»

Decay and rot away

But I know on my wedding day

What you are going to say:

«Promise me you’ll never wear the lipgloss, John

Promise me you’ll never wear the lipgloss!»

Well I used to rock a dress

At the shore

Strut 'til my heels were sore

Fuck the boys at the Carousel

Fuck the boys at the Meat Hotel

But I know on my wedding day

What you are going to say:

«Promise me you’ll never wear the lipgloss, John

Promise me you’ll never wear the lipgloss!»

Well I’ll never wear the lipgloss while I am with you

One bitch is enough, we don’t need two

And if I have to travesty I’ll do it on the sly

Decay and rot away

And then you die

Lipgloss, lipgloss John

Put the lipgloss on
