(Wendy Smith)
Carry no bright torches for me...
(Paddy McAloon)
You hide under the eiderdown
All you can't sweep underneath the carpet
When you cover your neighbour's wife
Scalding marks appear- you're talking scarlet
Kid yourself that it's platonic love
Best of friends
Eyes all smiling
Watch them turn to iron filings
I will say late one evening
While moonstruck beside her
I'll break the bonds of friendship
One by one
I'll tell her
I'm more than some friendly fellow
I will say "How ya doin ?"
So casually, she never suspects
I'm harbouring thoughts
Of kissing her neck
I think my mouth's been drinking
My basest thoughts do the thinking
You've no shame
When Scarlet is your name
Trust in flames
When Scarlet is your name
Carry no bright torches for me...
(Paddy McAloon)
You hide under the eiderdown
All you can't sweep underneath the carpet
When you cover your neighbour's wife
Scalding marks appear- you're talking scarlet
Kid yourself that it's platonic love
Best of friends
Eyes all smiling
Watch them turn to iron filings
I will say late one evening
While moonstruck beside her
I'll break the bonds of friendship
One by one
I'll tell her
I'm more than some friendly fellow
I will say "How ya doin ?"
So casually, she never suspects
I'm harbouring thoughts
Of kissing her neck
I think my mouth's been drinking
My basest thoughts do the thinking
You've no shame
When Scarlet is your name
Trust in flames
When Scarlet is your name
