Anybody but Betty (x4) |
|
I could be the lover |
|
Of anybody but her |
|
I could be the lover |
|
Of anybody but her |
|
I see her every morning |
|
And watch her fingers forming |
|
Shapes that are as graceful |
|
As a baby's face full |
|
Of hope until it turns to |
|
A neediness that burns through |
|
Your heart like it was butter |
|
In the mouth of someone's mother |
|
Betty's body, Betty's body |
|
Betty's body, Betty's body |
|
A certain scent of perfume |
|
Makes me think of her room |
|
And how I'd like to be there |
|
Lightly touching her bare |
|
Back and gently soaking |
|
In the sweet unspoken |
|
I could be her lover |
|
If it weren't for Mother |
|
Betty, Betty |
|
If you met me, you'd forget me |
|
Betty, Betty |
|
I am so shy, every day I |
|
Secretly cry since my mom died |
|
Anybody but Betty (x4) |
|
I could be the lover |
|
Of anybody but her |
|
I could be her lover |
|
If it weren't for Mother |
