Le Schwing - Johnny Foreigner

She never picks up on the first ring

She leaves me hanging at the station with the tourists and the touts

And I light another cigarette and I wait with my doubts

And my doubts are all I have as the summer burns the parks

And I’m scratching for an answer cause I know she’s going to ask

About the future that we’re failing, and how we start a fire from a spark

And I’d tell her that my songs are just the stories of our lives

And the endings are unfinished and not everyone survives

But how I only sing the truth, and that’s something only she gets to decide

And I hope you lied

I hope you shrugged and rolled your eyes and thought of all those other guys

Who promised love and gave it up

You’d never trust and never touch another life

If you believed them all

Slutever and ever, oh man

And we can talk about it

If I was honest I’d have ended me in Tokyo

And maybe that was cheap or maybe I’m just better than that

I’m calling it a chorus, singing «never going back»

Flew into America, looking for a revelation

Ended up in Washington, and got our shit stolen

I guess the moral of the story, is always take your wallet on the stage

And everyone is actors simply bouncing off each other

And our capitals are theatres and all your friends play lover

So I’d ask you as whatever, tell me that our script can be saved!

And it’s on

And it’s off

And it’s on

And it’s off

Yeah it’s off

No, it’s on

No, it’s off

Yeah, it’s on!

Slutever and ever and ever and ever and ever forever oh man
