I heard him whisper this question in her ear
The plate of chicken sandwiches
Well, tonight I choose self-abuse
I think tonight I'd rather love myself
With a choice between a loneliness and love sick QE2's
They were on the train to Venice, where else?
A good book on the shelf
I think tonight I fancy myself
The sun came rolling down
And if you drink that drink to your own health
I think tonight I'd rather love myself
"Do you love me like you used to?" He sighs
I'd rather drink that toast to my own health
"We're saving up for a world-wide cruise"
And they talked about their fantasies and fears
And I watched him spit the bits into her face
The neighbors ask them out but they flatly refuse
I'd rather drink that toast to my own health
They both brought along a sick-bag just in case
"I love you twice as much", she replies
And if you drink that drink to your own health
"For richer and for partly severed head"
And those lighter licking sounds
Later in the evening
Between the heavy breathing
I think tonight I'd rather love myself
"I'd see that you were loved and you were fed"
"I end up in a car crash almost dead"
Were lovely, they agreed
"Would you still love me if I lost my legs?"
I think tonight I'd rather love myself
A four-pack in the fridge
