Mariel’s Brazen Overture

Now that we have expired, I should be honest
Mary, I was unfaithful to you, and it kills me
And I have a son that I've never met

Martin, you can be honest with me if you want to
I don't want all your devils to hold me and haunt me
'Cause I have a love for you that's absurd

For 80 miles, oh, how we drove
(I drove), you drove, we drove together
For 80 miles, puffing our smokes
(I smoked), you smoked, We smoked together

But you loved me (yes, I loved you)

For 7 days, oh, how we drank
(I drank), you drank, we drank together
At roadside pubs in the rain
(I drank), you drank, let's drink together

But you need me (yes, I need you)

Mariel, someone is bleeding the wall
The house is beginning to crumble
The baby's on fire
Oh dear, the zebras are scaling the roof
The mice are beginning to scatter
Oh, Mary

You tied my shoes for me
You tied them tight
But the roof blew off
And you fell out of love

I wasted time on you
I wasted socks
But the sun went down
And I fell out of love

Mariel, would you love me if I was a liar?
