The Beautiful South - Love Adjourned lyrics

Your wife's got beautiful skin Shame it's not round her body no more It just came away in my hands As I asked her up to dance Just cut her out of your scrapbook If she ever made it in And if there's any old photos of her You know where to find the bin "Can't work it out" It's what I always say Adjourn this love into another day If you bite off more than you can chew Adjourn this love without a clue Your wife's got beautiful teeth Pity they're not in the mouth no more They just seem to crumble and fall As I pinned her to the wall Just rub her out of your diary Scratch her name off your list And if you want to see her smiling Take a good look at this fist "Can't work it out" It's what I always say Adjourn this love into another day If you bite off more than you can chew Adjourn this love without a clue You took this boy And you showed him insanity You said he must abide He showed you beauty And you showed him vanity Can't say that I cried "Can't work it out" It's what I always say Adjourn this love into another day If you bite off more than you can chew Adjourn this love without a clue
