I Wrote This Song In Pencil

by The Now Nows

I wrote this song in pencil in case you change your mind If you leave me I'll be practical - erase you from my life ... I wrote this song in pencil for the future is unknown And everybody here knows women come ... Women come and women go! I wrote this song in pencil in case you lose your mind. Our love may seem invincible but fate can be unkind I wrote this song in pencil didn't carve it into stone Cos everybody here knows women come ... Women come and women go! Once they've had their wonderful wicked way with you Scratched their nails across your heart (your bleeding heart) Well you know that there is nothing you can do But get their name tattooed upon your arm (Or other fleshy body parts) I wrote this song in pencil for when you go insane And leave me find another man some poor sucker you can blame I wrote this song in pencil I can feel it in my bones Everybody here knows women come ... Women come and women go! How dare you say want me! And let me adore you! How dare you say you need me! And even say you love me How dare I believe you! I wrote this song in blood by God that's all that you left me You took my pencil rammed it through my heart left me to bleed (to death!) Now I write this song in blood upon this floor on which I die Warning everybody women come (Once in a lifetime - if you're lucky) Women come and women go! I wrote this song in pencil In case you change your mind

about

A dark and bitter - yet upbeat - song from the perspective of the jolted, innocent male. (It has been known to happen ...)
