Momus – Lipgloss

From the album ‘Bambi‘ (2013).

Lyrics

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!”

“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
