Metric
Album: Fantasies
—–
Watch out,
Cupid stuck me with a sickness;
Pull your little arrows out,
And let me live my life.

You better watch out,
Cupid stuck me with a sickness;
Pull your little arrows out.
Let me live my life,
The one I better lead;
All the blondes of fantasies.

And we looked at them eleven ways;
You said “look at me,”
I looked away.
You wrote the song I wanna play;
I’ll write you harmony in C.

Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love,
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead.
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love,
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead.
Play the lead
Play the lead.

Watch out, Cupid,
Money is a sick muse;
Pull your little arrows out
And let me live my life.

She said ‘I’m with stupid,’
Money is a sick muse;
Pull your little arrows out.
Let me live my life;
The one I better lead,
All the blondes of fantasies.

And we looked at them eleven ways;
You said “look at me,”
I looked away.
You wrote the song I wanna play;
I’ll write you harmony in C.

Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love,
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead.
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love,
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead.
Play the lead
Play the lead.

I’ll write you harmony in C…
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love,
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead.
Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love,
Everybody, everybody just wanna play the lead.
Play the lead
Play the lead.

It was time to bring back this time-honoured tradition of the Song of the Day. This song was so catchy, I was playing it at least three times a day for two weeks before I bought this album. Which, by the way, is also excellent and highly recommended for any Metric fans who do not own it yet.
